Headlight covers!

[S800VXR]

Picked these up yesterday. Not cheap but as new. Going to apply a light tint to them before fitting, will be worth at least another 20hp then...

[SturdyHSV]

Are people really fitting those nasty headlight tints to these cars....!



You going to tint the rears as well for the fully blacked out look? The fact they've got HSV on them has to be another 10hp as well? Look forward to seeing the results

Take them off and flog them then. I've had three people ask about ours, so I'm guessing you hand will be bitten off when you hold them out.

Sturdy, I find that they are less obtrusive than 'roo bars would be on ours.

. Do you not remove them when you wash the car to get behind and give all areas a fresh coat of wax? Thought everyone did......

When the time comes, I might have them off you if they're cheap enough and they fit?

Around two month ago there were two brand new genuine HSV sets on eBay for around £65 a set

Yeah I'm kicking myself now lol. I hadn't seen an R8 with them fitted then so as much as I wanted some I was torn whether to actually get some !

I will have too keep scouring flee bay I guess lol

Ive just taken a set of my other ute, the VZ one. Awful things. On the upside, despite its mileage the headlights are mint underneath.

Happy to sell them, but no, they dont fit Monaro.

Have ordered some fancy new headlights so when I get around to fitting them you can have the covers for a nominal fee as they won't fit my new headlights

Could save a few £ by just wearing your sunglasses at night?

Tinting / fitting eyebrows or other masks to lights is a mod concept I really don't understand.
