Title: My new Sleek head lights, what do you think?
Post by: Laeeq on May 24, 2006, 11:20:49 AM
Bought these amemiya lights of Mark on Saturday and fitted them the next day and after few hours went for a drive and driver side cover came off.  Made one up myself yesterday, using perspex.

What do you all think?  I am planning to keep the out line white, it stands out and with new smoked indicators, the lines and curves of the bumper and the arches can be seen in more details....loving it.... :InLove

Personal opinion, but I\'d be inclined to paint the outside rim black, they do kinda stand out a bit in white.

I think they\'d look much better without the white outline. Paint it or give it a carbon fibre look..

The perspex cover took good part of the day.  Had to cut the glass into shape and the using heat gun to warm up the plastic (but not too much) and then the hardest part; slowly start bending it a bit till you think its nearly there....

I got the plastic from a double glazzing factory and its non breakable so you can bend it as much as you can but without the heat gun it will not budge(spelling again).....lol

looking good (gutted i missed out on them myself)
just a quick one off topic but your Mazdaspeed bonnet is lush
where from and a rough figure on price would be a great help as i\'m after one
(got the front spoiler, skirts & rear spoiler just need a bonnet & rear diffuser to complete)

Cheers, I\'m looking at trying to make up some a-spec light covers as someone decided to drive into mine,

Do you recon the stuff you used could make one of these.
