how many of you have one piece head lights? please read!
im asking this question cause im thinking of converting to these. i just purchased the black housing head lights from cust maxima, i didnt know how delicate these things are . I dropped one during the installation and the lense cracked completely, It didnt even drop more than a foot.Now im stuck cause custom maxima wont sell me just one lamp or even give me a discount on a new set. So my Question is are these one piece head lights glass or plastic housing? Can any one recomend some one in the NEW JERSEY to install these for me or help with the install? Thanks for all feed back

HOUSING should be plastic... lense should be glass, but I believe the cefiros are plastic as well. I heard they aren't hard to install, just takes time and pantience and tools, and some sort of body work knowledge, atleast a little.

Did you dish out $200 more just for the black housing lights? That's crazy. I'm hoping you already tried the AE mod yourself and it didnt work. If not...then I have no idea why you would spend yet another $200 for them.

one other reason why i went with the cust max head lamps. When i tried the A.E. MOD for the corner lamps i left one of the lamps in the oven to long and it melted the lamp a little . Also it didnt look good at all so pick up the black housing corners from e bay. when i installed these they didnt match the A.E. HEAD lamp mod at all,hence the purchase of the Cust Max black housing head lamps. It really sucks when you try and save money doing mods on your own and you wind up screwing things up and costing double. But what you gonna do **** haapens.
