Default 06+ Modded Black headlights for OEM 06+

I have these modded blacked out 06+ headlights that came on my car, but would prefer the look of the OEM ones. There are no cracks or damage, but some of the "Audi R8-like" LED's on the passenger side are out. The actual low and high beam xenons work fine though. I'm looking to trade plus some cash for untouched OEM 06+ headlights (will take an 03-05 set if the deal is right). I need for them to be complete, with all working bulbs, so I can just take them out of the box, and put them on the car. I WILL need your headlights first, as I drive this car to work and cannot have it sit while I am waiting for yours to get here. My iTrader should speak for itself on that. I see a lot of people ask $300 + trade for their blacked out 06 headlights, but since some of the LEDs and such need to be changed on mine, I will accept offers lower. I am located in Williamsport, PA. Once I receive yours, I will change them that day and put mine in the same box and send it out.

Forgot to mention in the title, but I will also entertain trades for 03-05 xenons if the deal is right.

To be honest, I don't know. Like I said, I just bought this car and I'm not really not a huge fan of the dark headlights and would prefer just the OEM ones. There are LEDs along the bottom and side of them though, kind of like the new Audis, but some of them on the passenger side light are out and need to be replaced (or just taken out). I was told that they were sent away to have done, and not home made. I can't see any flaws other than some bulbs out. All the high and low beam xenons work fine though.

I doubt you will get 300 bucks + 06-08 headlights for something that someone will have to reopen to fix. A night shot would definetly help though

Like I said, I see people asking 300 + trade for ones that have everything working perfectly, I obviously am not asking that much for mine. They are still perfectly good black 06 headlights, the LEDs are just a bonus if you feel like replacing the ones on the passenger side. I personally am not a fan of them, so I was just going to take them out altogether. My only reason for wanting a trade is that I don't prefer the black.

As long as you have some headlights to send me first, that's fine.

If you take them out, they're just blacked out 06 headlights. If you like them, its not hard to replace LED bulbs. I haven't driven the car at night yet, so I haven't used the headlights.

$700 + 03-05
$100 + 06-08

Not sure what rear bumper you are talking about, but I don't have any other Z parts right now.

Everybody talked me out of getting rid of the black ones so these are no longer for sale/trade. For anybody wondering, I looked into the LEDs not working and it was just a wire that wasn't making a good connection. Works great now. I guess I'll have to learn to love the black housings!

Not sure how your post is relevant to anything, but the entire car was repainted OEM PPW with the V2 bumper on. So if you see any variations, its from the lighting in the shot.
