MPoWeRMAN · 05-07-2007, 07:06 PM

anyone have this problem? what is my best option to try and get the pits out? they are already off my car, I just bought a new pair, and put on 3M clear guard, but I would like to sell these cause they are euro, but I want to get the pits out first

pic? hey if it werent so bad, i might be interested even without u buffin man, depends if the price is right.

well, you cant really tell in these pics, and they are really not that bad, it just looks like they have been on the car for a year or so, and it was just one sandstorm that I drove through, from more than 2 feet away, you cant see the pits at all, I will be selling these with no xenon bulbs or ballasts, now, they are adaptive, but when they were in my car, I got an error code for the driver side which went away after a few seconds, and the person that I bought them from (ADHD) thinks that they could have a faulty adaptive motor, so he says he is going to get me another motor, so I would rather wait till I have the motor, to sell them in complete working order, but I think 500 as they are would be a fair price

500 with bulbs and ballast or 500 with housing and adaptive motor?

MPoWeRMAN · 05-08-2007, 08:44 AM

500 with housing and adaptive motor, xtra 100 with a set of xenon bulbs, all other bulbs will be included, right now they have piaa angel eyes in them

jetblk328i · 05-08-2007, 04:49 PM

thats a pretty good deal but for me at least i dont need the adaptive motor, halogen to xenon mod.

MPoWeRMAN · 05-08-2007, 07:06 PM

well, then it doesnt matter weather you get adaptive or not

jetblk328i · 05-08-2007, 08:11 PM

hey u said xtra 100 for bulbs thats ballast too right?

You could attampt to sand down the lens, but be very careful. i found that the lens has a coating over it, and if you go too deep you take off that coating and its a PITA to get it cleared up again.
