another new exterior mod...

Well After over 2 years, the crystal clears had to go... I was changing bulbs and broke one of the tabs that holds it against the headlight off on one of them, so it was the perfect opportunity to do something different.

Here are the new corners. I love them. it is going to take a while ot get used to them as I was soo used to the crystal clears.

These are the smoked corners from importvision. I buy most all of my lighting from ken at importvision, he always gives me good prices and the products are always good quality.



What do you guys think? I am sure many of you prefer these over the crystal clears. I have to admit, I loved how the crystal clears looked, but I love these more.

i prefer frosted. but would be freaking sweet if you had the clear corners along with the "w202 style" headlights but retrofitted some bi-xenon lights in there... now that would be sweet. None the less, i like your new style more.

Ken gave me a great deal on two sets of euro's not long ago...but they were Depo's... and the fit and finish quality is just not that impressive even compared to my earlier TYC brand euros i had on my 400E. What is it with china, putting out ****ty products... I mean I understand americans are cheap and want everything for no cost... but how hard is it to put a little quality into products even at a lower cost, labor is the biggest cost savings for these people but I get so frustrated that quality gets left behind. I really wonder if people care anymore as long as they have their chinese crap that won't last half as long as something made by americans, japanese, or germans.
