Morning all,

I've had parts for these for a while and have been on and off considering sale of these as I've been thinking to keep them. Still tempted, I won't lie. Had these parts put away for a collectors set I wanted for myself, but seems a shame collecting tons of lights.

I don't build sets like this anymore, nor does delined / clear lenses come up.

These are a Facelift set, stripped and refurbished. With 6x stainless steel pressed and polished rings fitted. Painted inserts, replaced OEM butyl seal and clear lenses fitted. Black edging painted on the lenses, giving them a nice finishing touch.

The clear lenses are bonded, meaning the frames are OEM fitment.

While they're not brand new. The rings wont peel. And the lenses are near new condition. There's a few marks, but as mentioned, they aren't a new set that's been modified. But pretty mint, as you'll see in the photos.

Refurbs I charge £230, rings are £150, delined lenses (which I don't do anymore) I used to do for £200. I would charge £580 usually to modify lights like this. So in theory, you're getting a set of Facelifts for £120, plus services. But I think it's a bit muggy to charge any more than 700. As they aren't perfect or brand new, though they'll last the test of time with steel rings.

Lenses have gone through my trademark polishing process, G3, Autoglym cutting polish, Blackhole glaze and Dodo Wax, inside AND out. Added tons of photos with them off the set, just as it's pretty cool polishing them for hours by hand and seeing the results and thought if I was buying a set, I'd want to see that too.

I bubble wrap the lights, box them up. Then bubble wrap the box.. then black wrap the box. Posted, insured. Never had a set of lights I've sent get damaged. Shipped plenty of sets around the UK, some to Italy, Japan, Australia and USA.

What do they look like fitted? Thank you to our model of the day, @Delboy52, for providing me some photos of your clean lens steel ring set for examples. As his set, is the same spec.

£700.

Do it. I've not sold them yet. And awoken to 3 messages this morning asking if they're still for sale.

If I had the plastic ones I would have taken these in a heart beat. Was thinking about it all night. I still can't get rid of the idea of getting my glass headlights refurbed by you in your finish.

 I will wait till you have the rings and are ready to do mine mate.
