FS: clear headlights
So I am out of the SC game for a while. I had to sell my car due to financial constraints but I sold it with stock headlights and removed these headlights, THAT I MADE. If you are unfamiliar with my dyi lenses, you can click on the link in my sig to see how I made them. These are truly one of a kind.
That said, these lenses are well used and in rough shape. They have been on my car for a couple of years and have seen all kinds of weather. Also, I baked them open at least a half dozen times.
I am including close up pics so that the buyer knows exactly what they are getting, which is a unique set of one-of-a-kind headlights for the SC at a very cheap price. These would be awesome for a race/drift car, but could totally be used as everyday headlights.
Keep in mind they are in rough shape. As you can see in the pics, one of the lenses is very slightly cracked from someone backing into it with their bumper. The other lens has some paint stains on the inside of it. Both lenses haev pits and scratches all over but they look great mounted on the car from 20ft away.
What you are really paying for here is the lenses, but I am including everything because I really don't want to be baking these open again. Kinda tired of that already though it is a simple process.
So there is no confusion, whoever buys these must know that these lenses/housings are in very rough shape. But, having said that, they still have potential and would give any ordinary SC a fresh look.
$40 + actual shipping. Will only ship to lower 48.
PRICE DROP: $20 + actual shipping (should be no mre than $20 for shipping to the lower 48)

A few pics. You can see the crazing in the turn signal lenses. This is from the VHT nightshades that I used to paint them with. Apparently, this type of plastic does not like the VHT.

-Use them the way they are... just to have a different looking apir of headlights to swap in once in a while.
-OR-
-Bake the clear lenses off the housings, and remount them onto your current housings. I mean, they'll still look crappy up close unless you sand them down with some fine grit sandpaper and polish them up with plastX. Keep in mind that there is a 2" (clean) crack in one of them. Not that noticeable from 10 feet away but it is there.
The housings themselves are cosmetically shot. I've painted them at leat a half-dozen times in various colors. Now they are top coated in black but they look terrible up close.
I'm going to drop the price to $20 + actual shipping. So I can feel less guilty about the poor schmoe who will be buying these.
