terryk2003 Posted April 21, 2007 Report Posted April 21, 2007 soo, i got a set of black headlights from a guy on clubgp...now that i got them, i realize they don't fit very great...BUT, they look kinda cool (just installed them, so i dunno what the light output will be @ night...)...soo, i'm not sure if i wanna keep them, or get some clear corners for the stock headlights and call it a day...soo...here are some pics...let me know what you think!...thanks!

Dirty Rockstar Posted April 21, 2007 Report Posted April 21, 2007 They don't fit that well, but look great.. (If I get my Bonneville GXP, I intend to do that to the headlights) How comfortable are you adding a light layer or two of niteshades? Quote
Psych0matt Posted April 21, 2007 Report Posted April 21, 2007 depends on how much of a perfectionist you are. I really like them and say keep them, but if the slight fitment issue really bugs you, then maybe not. I think they arent that bad to justify leaving the stockers on, but that's just me Quote
DiscoStudd Posted April 22, 2007 Report Posted April 22, 2007 I think they look alright. GM's aren't exactly world renowned for their fit and finish anyway, so at least the expectations are low on that front! Quote
digitaloutsider Posted April 22, 2007 Report Posted April 22, 2007 Those fit for ass! I'd just paint my stockers. Quote
runt Posted April 22, 2007 Report Posted April 22, 2007 Those fit for ass! I'd just paint my stockers. x2!! Also, if you get a set of clears from eBay...be prepared to either put a bead of silicon around the lens or bake 'em and re-do them yourself. I just threw a bead around without baking 'em, and after nearly a year they still look pretty good. But, IMO...those lights look like ass and the fit SUCKS. Quote
MonteCarloChick Posted April 22, 2007 Report Posted April 22, 2007 Those would look so much better if the headlight was all one piece Quote
terryk2003 Posted April 22, 2007 Author Report Posted April 22, 2007 well, FWIW: the light output isnt that bad...not as bad i expected anywayz...the really messed up thing though, is that when i turn the highbeams on, the lights aim down instead of up!...WTF!?!?!? ...i'm not sure if the bulb is in there the wrong way, or if these lights are just that reatarded...if i can't figure that out, i'm deffinatly ditching these things... ohh, and i wasnt really asking as far as quality was concerned, but i was asking if you guys think the black headlight/sidemarker looks decent, or if it would look better with a clear sidemarker & headlight...

digitaloutsider Posted April 22, 2007 Report Posted April 22, 2007 I don't think the GP's pull off that blacked out headlight/corner thing too well. The Regals do it good, but it makes the GP's look broke. Like they were in a wreck and they didn't fix the lights right. Quote
runt Posted April 22, 2007 Report Posted April 22, 2007 Stock headlights w/ clear corners = boner Quote
Euro Posted April 22, 2007 Report Posted April 22, 2007 lose the black....doesn't go with the car. Quote
J Posted April 22, 2007 Report Posted April 22, 2007 hot but fitment sucks. Paint your stockers Quote
jeremy Posted April 22, 2007 Report Posted April 22, 2007 hot but fitment sucks. my thoughts exactly Quote
Nick1234 Posted April 23, 2007 Report Posted April 23, 2007 x2 in hottness. but doesn't look right. Quote
terryk2003 Posted April 24, 2007 Author Report Posted April 24, 2007 i have em both in now...they're growing on me...i think i might keep em!... as far as fitment, they don't fit any worse than the stockers... Quote
rudefyet Posted April 24, 2007 Report Posted April 24, 2007 Yeah, from what I see, they look like they fit as bad as the stockers Quote
Psych0matt Posted April 24, 2007 Report Posted April 24, 2007 Yeah, from what I see, they look like they fit as bad as the stockers twost Quote
Monkton Posted April 24, 2007 Report Posted April 24, 2007 Yeah I was thinking that to when I saw the picture of the stock on the left and black on the right. Honestly I don't like the black headlights on your car for some reason. I think it has something to do with the color of your car but I like the stockers better. Quote
terryk2003 Posted April 25, 2007 Author Report Posted April 25, 2007 I'm gonna have to take a few good pics. I think you guys might like them better after the windows are tinted. Quote
terryk2003 Posted April 25, 2007 Author Report Posted April 25, 2007 well...it rained today...and one of them fogged up...SOOO...i'm totally putting the stockers back in and selling these!!...i'm not dealing with resealing these... Quote
runt Posted April 26, 2007 Report Posted April 26, 2007 Once they get water in them they are pretty much fucked, IMO. Quote
