Help me choose my headlights!

WaterDR · 03-06-2005, 03:09 PM

I feel as though my car needs some new eyes!

My car is a black 2000GT with a newly added Stage 3 bumper. Please vote!

Keep in mind that the car has the larger, round clear fogs from Roush now too.

PS - Is there a quality difference between $150 lights and $225 lights?

Need a picture of the new bumper and what it looks like right now. PIC Please.

The smoked headlights you see online at webstores for 230 can be found on ebay for 130 give or take.

All these lights are from Taiwan so just get the cheapest you can. I went to FFW this weekend and I saw a pair of smoked lights for $200 when I looked where it was made it was Taiwan. Im going to get smoked also plus it looks awesome with black. I say ebay.

No really. Just a little road damaged and old looking.

i have the smoked clear corner headlights and i bought them off ebay last year for like 150 and i sold my stock headlamps for about 180 or 190. so i made some cash but those aftermarket lights sucked they started collecting moisture on the inside. so just wait for some 2001 up headlights to pop up on ebay, i bought some for $40 total and have no compliants with them. if you want i can sell you those clear corners but i dont think they look right on black cars.

Get a pair of 2001+ headlights man. They look great and dont leak like all the others. They look great on black cars. The front of my car changed completely with just a set of lights and the light output got 10 times better. Mine were all sandblasted and oxidized though too so it might not be so drastic. By the way, the 01+ lights arent really smoked, they just have a black reflector in the back instead of the chrome one from 99-00.
