rockfangd Posted May 23, 2009 Report Posted May 23, 2009 Ok so last week when i got the seats from the 1993 international i glanced under the hood and found these black trim pieces that snapped onto the headlamp assemblies. I picked them up and i like them, i think they inprove the look of the headlamps. My question is why the hell have i never seen these before? What cutlasses got them? Is there any functionality to these? How rare are they? i checked on my 94 cutlass supreme and the holes that the trim pieces snap into were present so they snapped right on I will post the installed pics tomorrow. Dont mind the cell pics Oh and i might add that this is a SEDAN and not a coupe Quote
Addicted To Boost Posted May 23, 2009 Report Posted May 23, 2009 I've seen this before as well. I'm not sure when and why they were on CS. On GPs, they were painted on trim on the headlights and fogs for 88-89 cars only. Quote
ManicMechanic Posted May 23, 2009 Report Posted May 23, 2009 I've seen those...Might have been just up to 1993 thing... I want Jake to do the mascara to his TGP...I love that look. Quote
oscar_wilde Posted May 23, 2009 Report Posted May 23, 2009 Do the Lumina's have a similar headlight trim? My 1992 Lumina has them, or at least very similar trim around both lamps. Quote
mediabandit Posted May 23, 2009 Report Posted May 23, 2009 My Z34 has the same trim pieces as well. Quote
3.1cutlass Posted May 23, 2009 Report Posted May 23, 2009 My cutlass has them. They do seem to keep the light from shining out the top and bottom of the housings. Quote
Crazy K Posted May 23, 2009 Report Posted May 23, 2009 they ALL should have them. I think you are correct in that 94+ got them omitted. actually, my 95 has one black eye... but that was a headlight housing I had to replace IIRC. on my 94, I painted them with spray paint...... Quote
rockfangd Posted May 23, 2009 Author Report Posted May 23, 2009 ok so today i found that pre 94 got them on both base and international models Quote
intern8tion9l Posted May 26, 2009 Report Posted May 26, 2009 i saw them on a 91 vert. my 89 international just had paint on the lenses, and no where to clip those things on. found that out after i grabbed them cause i thought they would look cleaner than the paint Quote
5speedz34 Posted May 26, 2009 Report Posted May 26, 2009 Ya I thought all CS's had this.....I know all luminas do. Quote
GOT2B GM Posted May 26, 2009 Report Posted May 26, 2009 yeah my 91 International has them, as do my Z34. TGP (the most expensive of all of them brand new) does not, go figure. Quote
oscar_wilde Posted May 29, 2009 Report Posted May 29, 2009 yeah my 91 International has them, as do my Z34. TGP (the most expensive of all of them brand new) does not, go figure. Doesn't the TGP have a different headlamp style? Or do you mean the really early ones? Quote
Addicted To Boost Posted May 29, 2009 Report Posted May 29, 2009 Only 1988-1989 GPs had them. And even then, they were only painted on, so they flaked off eventually. Quote
