Hey all, After much thought, I will need to keep the Tuscan style front lights, as to convert them back to faired units will cost an absolute fortune. Due to the amount of front wing reconstruction needed, as well as a full re-spray in coming in at £7.5k +
The Chim currently has the Type R ones fitted as below, but when I get the car re-sprayed, I'll have the side and indicator holes filled for a cleaner/less fussy look.

Current



With this in mind, does anyone know if there is a light upgrade for Tuscan style lights?
The dipped beams are ok, but the main beam's are appalling. They only seem to light up the side of the road.
The alignment has been checked, and all ok, but the light performance is very poor.

As always, any help greatly appreciated

Thanks

Fit some LED bulbs in the driving lights. See the long thread by CoG in the Chimp enclosure.

They are not 'Tuscan light upgrade' lights, they are Cerbera LW style lights banghead
And very nice too which matches the existing 'frenched' look of the lower indicator/inlet holes.

Thanks for the replies. A great thread, and maybe an easier option having multiple lenses, rather than the beam spread issues COG had with a single lens.
Will look into and let you know how I get on smile
