quote: awesome. this might be the way to doing a phase1 set, same with indicators. hmm i shall have a look tomorrow I had 'black masks' on my old phase 1. Not intentional though... The silver reflective part faded and was dark plastic underneath. Looked good so i never bothered getting new ones  Also with the Phase 1 lights it will be alot easier to remove the lense as its not bonded ________________________________________  |

Would explain the Metal clip, and different front reflector. The valeo ones go further down iirc?? Anyhow, fancy borrowing me your oven too. I'll spray mine astor i think  ________________________________________ Team Supercharged Gti-6NV Motorsport Automotive Performance Tuning 0121 448 7515 ECU Remapping/ DPF removal VAG/BMW Diag and Option Coding Peugeot Planet ECU coding/transponder programming etc www.nvmotorsport.com Facebook Page Project S6 |

I like the matt black bonnet badge  I think I may have a go at that. As it the only chrome thing on the car and looks a bit odd.  ________________________________________ My Rallye was built on thursday 7th January 1999 according to the cosmic code generator.My Cyclone refurb |

I just sold some black masks to Mabz, they are exactly the same as mine.Its the reflective bit thats black, not the lens I will buy some valeos and do them soon as the valeo lights are a better fit and sit more flush to the wings ________________________________________ Cress87 wrote: This place is getting beyond a joke.

Im pretty sure the black part in the cibie lights is not sprayed black but is actually just black plastic with a matt finish  ________________________________________ Just Drive It |
