2008 bi-xenon headlights *satin black* $825 shipped
$825 shipped and paypal'd obo.
F/S I have my original lights. I put stock headlights on my car when I traded it in, and am selling these. Read the description carefully, I described all issues with the lights fully so the buyer knows exactly what they're getting.
To start: all lights work perfectly, turn signals, brights, running lights, lo beams. Original ballasts, and bulbs. No issues mechanically, only cosmetics.
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 fine now, except where the water dried on the inside of the lens is noticeable if you look within 3 feet or closer and at an angle.
Both of the lenses have the little stress cracks in certain spots that you get if you're not really careful opening the lights. Again, only noticeable within 3 feet. Another thing a potential buyer would point out is that one of them, the paint bubbled right under the projector (not terribly, but again it's noticeable if you are up close and looking. And if you're super meticulous, the glue isn't artwork, just does the job. It's clear rtv all the way around nice and thick to make sure they never leak again.
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.
Here are all of the pictures I have:

You can see the stress marks on this one:

Two things... if you make an agreement and say you will send money, please don't disappear. Also, don't send something RETARDED like 500 shipped... go on ebay for shitty lights.

4 people now have said they're paying... and haven't come through. This is a steal for what you're getting. Ballasts, lights, wiring - they're plug and play. All mounting points are perfect.
