Simple uneducated question guys. I've tried searching and can't come up with anything.

Say you've got some ugly headlights like this:




What are your options? What needs to be replaced and whatnot and what's the best place to buy the new parts?

Thanks!

 

Same question regarding the amber tail lights.

Thanks boys (and girl?)!

 

You could put in clear halogen headlights or the litronics(Porsche xenons). Both do not have the amber like yours.

Problem is litronics went up to $2.5k/pair recently...........just buy clear halogens $400-600/set used and put a HID kit/$100-150 on,OEM ones aren't worth $2.5k.

 

You could put in the newer style 996 tail lights.

They are something like $500/pair new.

 

i got mine replaced.. ebay is a good place to start..

 

So I'm looking around $1000 for heads and tails?
Drats, that's coming out of the wheel fund.
Thanks guys!

 

i saw someone smoke the whole front headlight and just replace the side marker. but that will only work if you are planning to go with the silver/black theme for your car.

those tail lights from ebay look good though.

 

The car is black. I'd rather stay with the clears. Do I need the entire assemblies or can I do the oven trick like my e46's?

 

I have a set of smoked headlights I will trade for the orange ones in good condition. I have the litronics now. I had them professionally painted with a clear coat+little bit of black paint

 

I have a perfect pair of All Clear OEM halogens. There is not a single scratch on them. I will deliver them to your front door for $575.00 with insurnace and shipping.

Here is a pic of the lights...I have them in the Porsche OEM packaging and boxes and they are ready to go.

 

I sent you a PM I have a nice set as well : )

 

Sounds good ZEM, although I am a noob and don't have PM access yet.
I'll give you a PM later this week. Sound fair?

 

Thats fine or shoot me an email either or! zem930@aol.com

 

Thanks ZEM. Looks like there are a lot of people here and on eBay selling some headlights.
I haven't had so much luck finding the taillights. Any recommendations? Am I just searching wrong? These orange tails are horrid.

 

hi guys,

i heard that there is a way to manually remove the orange in the headlight? not the corner piece, as i've already replaced that with a clear piece, but actually somehow grind out the orange in the main headlight housing?

has anyone, or does anyone know anything about this?

thanks in advance!
