Ya, I'm thinking about un-tinting the corner lights, or just replacing them all together. Is there an aftermarket company that makes 1 piece headlights for this car??

Also I am not going to make it faster Im not gonna race this baby
Nor am I going to lower, just not my thing

again, unless there's a conspiracy against me, 95-97 UCF2x LS400s already have 1pc headlights



are you trying to say you want one with the corner light molded in as well, because that smoked light you have is JUST a corner light, not a fog/high/low/turn. and if it is, no, by design a 1pc wouldnt work since you need to remove the corner light in order to take the headlight housing out.

Nice! I'm loving the black on black! I went with black on black for mine as well.

Conspiracy. Paranoia will soon follow.

Yup, one piece but if you look very closely, you can see where they joined the pieces with cello tape and chewing gum.

I love the way it looks stock but, Its not my car. Congrats on the new ride. The body style of the LS400 is the best to me and what I wanted when I went to Maryland to get my LS430 but, there were none on the lot so I got a LS430 instead!!! L.G.N.M

Look alright. Personally I'd get rid of the blacked out corner light and get some bigger dishes on the wheels.
