me and a mate are thinking about doing our own smoked headlights, they will be better than the depos as they wont steam up.

just gauging interest in to how popular these would be for about £65 at a guess including postage, may be less depending on how much interest.

there will also be the option that the smoked part of the headlight can be any colour so you may wish to match the colour of your car etc.

we may also start doing smoked headlights for other vauxhalls and also start doing coloured v grilles like the one on my astra as below for about £55 posted, not tried a corsa one yet, but i will be doing this weekend.





as i say, this is just a gauge of interest at the minute so please dont u2u me yet, but put a post up here if you are interested.

Cheers

i did and it said it was a gauge of interest at the minute..and i would be very interested if there was evidence that the headlights were smoked properly. therefore i cannot say yes or no due to not seeing anything except a painted v-grille...

its not the actual glass that is smoked, its the chrome bits behind that are done that make the headlights look smoked.

check pictures in my garage for what they will look simlar to.
