Haven't figured out what I'm gonna ask yet... here's the deal.

I have a set... the lowbeam reflectors are a bit corroded inside or something, black pits all over the chrome reflector. So I buy another set, plus an extra pair of lowbeam reflectors to swap out, from Germany.

I picked the best reflectors to swap out for mine as well as the new set. I spraypainted a clear coat on the new set to try to get a "new" finish on it, clear glass, etc. Left it at my dad's house drying, haven't seen the ultimate results. Heading back there this weekend to check it out, I'll see how it ended up!

Long story short, I'll be putting those on my car, and pulling my current set off, swapping out the lowbeam projector unit for a better version, and maybe refinishing those, depending on how the other set turned out. So, basically... I have to finish them up, see what they look like, and set a price there.

So... I don't have a price yet, but if I have time to pull my headlights after swapping water pump, radiator, hoses, thermostat/housing, and brake rotors this weekend, as well as swapping wheels on my other car... I'll pull my set off, get to swapping it, and see how they end up. I'll be sure to let you know! :)

Well, once I pull my set out and swap these other ones in, I just have to put the better reflectors in (I'm driving with the "bad" ones, they're not THAT bad, I'm just a perfectionist), and they'll be ready to go... just have some minor pitting on the glass as is expected with this age. If you want em in that shape, I could figure out a price...
