Anyone know if there is a place in vancouver that does headlight mods? Like painting the housing?

i know a guy that does his work in his garage. His company name is called vantage audio
http://vantagecanada.com/

his name is Jordon. very nice guy. but im not sure if he can paint the housing. but he does headlight mods. Maybe he can do the headlight mod and you can get the housing color matched at a body shop?

why not do it yourself...be alot cheaper and its not that hard. Just bake your headlights for 10-15 mins on 250* and then pull the lense apart. Then unscrew all the pieces and paint them. Then go buy some automotice cocking and seal it back up.

Nice lights snakes! I want to do thus to mine but I'd be doing mine over the winter when the Z is stored. Summer I use it as my DD getting 99% of my driving, very rarely will the pathfinder see the road between may 1st to nov 1st. Just can't let my Z sit there.

But one off topic question now..... Did u switch cars again! An evo now??? What happened to the truck did u not just get got Ram SRT-10?

Go to Designo, and ask a guy named Sammy. He have done a Z with modded headlights. Ask him for details.

Thats definitely one way. But i dont justify myself doing it. I just dont want to **** anything up lol.

If you take your take your time you wont **** it up. Its easy to do, just need to keep the cocking heated to get the lense off... Thats the hardest part. But heating it in the oven and then using a heat gun or the wifes hair dryer will work.

And yes i sold the truck for a evo for many reasons but the main ones are to much on gas, transmission was pissing me off cuz its junk and an auto. Plus i was Pissed i couldnt run it at the road course. Now i got the evo that costs $55 to fill and lasts 450km and i ran it at the strip with only 300km on it and got a 13.5@101mph
