i was thinking going back to standard lights for the time being, and selling the existing ones. My mates got the sames ones as you dna. Have you idea for websites into buying the ones in the bottom picture?

hmmm you can't really buy them like that mate as they're usually sprayed... u want someone to do it using paint and lots of lacquer though rather than a tinting spray can otherwise you get a matt finish and not a shiny one.... they come on eBay every now and then but usually go for around 50 quid as they're hard to come by.... i do remember someone telling me once though and i dunno if this is right but if u t-cut the tinting spray after its been put on it goes shiny - don't hold me to it though! i wanted the bottom ones but opted for black lexus because they were easier both legally/mot'ably and to source!
hope this helps

Yup! i'll agree with that one!! once the tint spray has dried get the t-cut out, just dont do it too soon otherwise because you will t-cut all of the spray off, I did it on my clusters and it looked wicked,
alltho i have lexus ones now, got fed up with everything being black on my car so thought i'd do something to break it up a bit
