pics of SHO's w/ clear headlight covers?

[Rio]

I've been considering getting the clear headlghts just to see what they look like on a SHO. I've seen em on Grand Nationals and they dont look bad. Anyone have them wanna give me their opinion of them? PICS?

 

[ShoGuy93]

Yeah that sounds like an awesome idea...I have been wanting to do something like that also. But the funds just go to bigger and better things...

Well i know there is a silver sho out there that has some clear covers and he painted them silver and did a special design on them.. They look good. I wish i could find the pic. If i find it i will post it for u....

Check this "homemade" setup:

I've seen that pic of the silver SHO, i dont like it that much at all. Emerald 94, did you just use night shades on yor headlights? Or are those covers tha you painted. They look pretty good, this is what I wanted to do with the clear covers. How much does this setup affect the light output?

 

[Emerald94]

Actually, this is not my car (what are the odds, another green SHO wink ) It belongs to Herman, a member of SHOPOWER, here in Ontario.
It's a HID setup he made himself so it has plenty of light output. The whole unit can be removed should the need of going back to the stock setup ever come up.
Too bad it's a one of a kind, it cost him too much to make.

Herman's site: http://hanker.tripod.com/headlight-level3-project.htm

Believe me, it's not an easy project. But with work it can be done.

I'm talking about clear corners. you know to get rid of that ugly orange on the side. oh_my

 

[Emerald94]

Ugly orange side markers are required by law.
Changing them to a clear one (why?) can earn you a ticket from an overzealous cop.

I think that depends on state (not positive, trying to remember). But I think they can be clear, it just has to blink amber light. Maybe I'm wrong?

Herman, set the record straight!

dude
those headlights look amazing. i want. boink

 

[herman]

holy sh**t guys.... I had 56 hits on my SHO headlight page today... I had to track down where it came from! Thanks for liking my headlights, BTW!

Yes, the orange reflectors on the side is mandatory by law.

Those headlights look awesome, but something needs to be done to the side to make them match... These easy to make if ya have the parts? If so I might do it for a hobby.

I would say no, and I bet Herman would agree. Maybe not so much hard to make, as VERY time consuming. Right Herman? wink

 

[ChitownA34DR]

Ok, I read it all over and I agree... very time comsuming...

clear corners are not illegal.
