Default 06+ Headlights - Sti lens, Halo, Hydrodipped

I have some 06+ Headlights that I am getting rid of.

Long story short I had someone do my headlights and they really messed up making a hole in the front bezel to put a halo in front of it. I managed to fill the hole with JB weld but it required me to paint the whole bezel silver. The paint I used isn't that great the with heat resistance.

Here is the picture below:

You can see slight bubbling. On both bezels.


Now on to the pictures of the items:

I opened up my headlights and tried to fix everything. I had a company hydro dip my housing Carbon, which looks awesome BTW. There are a few bubbles from the heat on the hydrodip but nothing really noticeable at all. The Clear Lens Cover are from ebay aftermarket headlights. I have a condensation on both sides (more so on the driver side) so I put a generous amount of silicone to prevent it but did not work (Around the whole housing). Old silicone can be heated and scraped. I have no idea what is causing the condensation. Also the driver side light has a broken tab that attaches to the fender, but I fixed it with Epoxy glue. I have no time to fix this so I am just going to sell it off to someone who has time to salvage these lights. It will not come with the rear dust covers or the balast/bulb, and parking light. They have the potential to look really awesome!

Pros:

- Comes with STI Lens
- Comes with Retrosolutions Halo
- Hydrodripped Carbon Fiber


Cons:

- Needs to be resealed condensation
- Slight Bubbling on the bezel and the housing
- Broken Tab on Driver side (fixed with epoxy glue)



I tried to describe the condition as much as possible. So please do keep in mind that they might require some work.

$500 Picked up
$575 Shipped

Also the driver side headlight had a broken tab where you screw in into the fender but I fixed it with expoxy glue. I will make sure to change that on the original post as soon as I get to a computer.

As for the parts missing because I am keeping:

1: Headlight Dust Covers - $6 bucks each - Link: http://www.courtesyparts.com/26800n-...4_715_751_758&

2: Ballast - Anyone with an existing ballast can use theirs

3. HID BULBS - $60 MAX for D2S Bulbs for a Brand Like ONEX or an Equivalent

4. Parking bulb - Few bucks are a dealership

Bump for a good deal! I'll work something out.

I don't have the picture of the cutoff but its nice and clear and bluish like every STI-R lens mod.
