Clear Headlights for E85

Post by Kallum9 » Thu Jun 14, 2018 8:17 pm

Looking for some new headlights for my Z4 as mine are leaking and I've spent weeks trying to fix them and make them look nice with no luck.

I'm looking for a pair with clear indicators that'll work on a E85 halogen model. If you have any for sale, or know anyone who does, or have any reccomendations of places to buy from (Not MStyle) let me know :D

I'd also be happy with a swap if someone wants to spend the time to fix them and is much more skilled than me

Thanks,
Kallum

I haven't been able to have them!! I ordered them a whole ago and they messaged me saying that had none in stock and none available. I wouldn't mind MStyle ones, just seem like MStyle dont want to sell them to me!!

So - you’ve realised that aftermarket headlights are crap, but still you want to buy another set?

I’d be looking for a second hand set of OEM headlights if I were you. If the lenses are cloudy in a used set get them polished or sanded and lacquered, and fit new rear covers so you don’t get dampness issues.

Id be up for a set of OEMs as well if someone has a set for sale. I cant open up mine as a previous owner has siliconed them shut meaning I cant clean them.

It's a bit different when the guy has posted on a WANTED thread. The op wants it and gtb500 has one he may sell to him, dependent on price.
