What do you think these two pairs of 06+ lights worth?
I bought a second set from a local person because I painted mine, and wanted to have stock lights for trade-in.
I'm now undecided as to which I should sell, and which I should put on the car when I go to sell it.
First, I have my original lights. I painted them satin black and resealed them. One didn't seal all the way and got condensation (what a pain to get rid of btw). I dried it out, and resealed it without opening it back up. It's find now, except where the water dried on the inside of the lens is noticeable if you look up close.
Both of the lenses have the little stress cracks in certain spots that you get if you're not really careful opening the lights. Another thing a potential buyer would point out is that one of them, the paint bubble right under the projector (not huge, but again is noticeable if you are up close and looking. And if you're super meticulous, the glue isn't artwork. Just does the job.
So, IMO... if you were going for perfection you'd need to open up both lights... repaint the one spot, wipe down the inside of the other lens, then redo the glue with black sealer instead of the clear silicone I used.
I originally was going to sell them on here and put the stock ones on my car. However, idk how likely they are to be bought on here for a fair price. From 8 ft plus, they look perfect. All the lights work, and they look awesome. I listed everything that is wrong. I think 600-700 shipped on them. So what do you guys think?
Here's some pics (I'll take closeups when it stops raining here):



The second set I have are stock ones in great shape with one missing mounting tab (bought them like that). It's the mounting tab at the top.

I'm guessing between 800-900 shipped for these.

I think you are dead with the range on for both sets. I wouldn't take any less than what you posted price wise for either pair of lights.
I'd grab the painted ones for 600 or so easy if I were in the market, despite the imperfections. 700 is even fair IMO.
G/L with sale.

yep agreed.. i waita a damn YEAR to find the deals on mine over ebay.. i paid 260 for one and 280 for another one.
was EXTREMELY lucky.
prices noted in posts above are all day long prices, very good price range.
If you wanted a fast sale, id call it 750 shipped , no extra paypal charge and be done, youd sell em in a heartbeat imperfect or not.
