Called my dealer on friday about getting a pair of 07 headlight assemblies to get this done. I wanted to keep a set stock. But they're quoting $250 plus (a peice)! Anyone else able to find better prices? I'd really like to have this done. Looks super nice!

Thanks

If you can get 07 headlights for $250 each, you should grab them!!! There's no way that they are that cheap.

I was looking online today and saw how much they were going for. A LOT more than what I was quoted. I'm going to stop in tomorrow and make sure we're talking about the same thing.

my z is a daily driver so i will need it while my headlights are getting done.....

anyone know if i will have a problem putting my front bumper back on without the headlights? i assume i can but wanted to make sure.

Or should i not even bother putting the bumper back on and just drive around for a week without a front bumper?

Anyone forsee any problems doing this?

also, anyone have any suggestions on replacement bulbs as far as upgrading?

Yes, you can put the bumper back on w/o the headlights. I can't say whether it would be a fix it or not. I'd guess not though.

But for sure this would be the 1st set of 06 magnetic black head lamp painted by Dan @ MrZipps.com.
Dan has done a excellent job on color matching plus the quality on this work is remarkable I must say.
Here are some pictures enjoy !!

Thanks Danny
Think I was the first to get Magnetic Black, posted in Mid-A though

Yep ZDi[R]tY3 was the first set of 06 headlights that I painted Magnetic Black. I painted them back in March but he didn't post pictures after they were done.
