TuneR Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Trying to decide on which suit the car better so i threw on an old facelift headlight that the car came with and gave it a quick polish (they need rings doing though). I prefer the facelift lights but i think the UKs actually suit the colour and the car better? I would probably buy a new set of facelifts if i decided on them but the UKs and indicators are only 1/2 years old. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 i have a similar dilemma with my gunmetal car i have UK's at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike33 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I went the uk route and my car is a very similar colour.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evinX Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I have both, just in case. I think facelifts looks cooler but they are plastic. The UK's on yours looks like an American spec supra which is nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogmaw Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I have the same colour car as you and a few years ago I tried the UK lights... big mistake, didn't like them at all! Got rid and now back with facelift lights... much better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_ufo Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I would go face lifts if you can afford them, I went UK glass because they were alot cheaper and I like better light output Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glanza_Mike Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Usually i'd say facelift and it's not even close for me but on your car the UK's actually look really nice and i'd probably choose them to be honest. Lovely colour & car you have, looks a great Supra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripped_fear Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 The thing is the facelifts look better and more modern but only when new. Most look hazed, fogged or corded. The Uk's will at least last being glass, but if you can afford to buy new from MrT then get some face lifts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Has to be the UK spec glass for me, the face lifts only work with a handful of colours. Tried both as well but the facelifts didn't suit - http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=198219&d=1425322813 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bailey Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Both great...but I think Facelift just edges it for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesmark Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 UK Spec for any colour. Facelifts in my opinion are ghastly IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Mark Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I'd say facelift, but then again I've just forked out for a brand new pair of facelifts so am probably biased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwilkinson Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Facelift for me. The all chrome internals on pre-facelift and UK spec remind me of aftermarket saxo / corsa rear lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham1984 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 UK Spec facelifted, win win Would agree with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I like the look of the facelifts but they are a pain to keep clean & not have issues with them. I found the UK Spec's give a much more crisp light output and hassle free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarleyFDMD Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Im currently in the process of face lifting my UKs so have the best of both worlds. Black inserts and glass lenses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 It's not just the colour that's preferable on facelifts, the arrangement of the lights is neater too. The pre facelift sidelights are especially ugly. I do admit that UKs do look nicer on sone cars though, they're definitely growing on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
