Are there any one-piece headlights for the sn95 that don't look like crap?

just_a_guy84 · Jan 17, 2011

I have been looking for some headlights for my cobra, I was thinking some one piece lights would look good, but all I can find seem to be pretty cheesy. I was thinking something that resembled the stock lights just solid, is that so much to ask? If you have any pictures with one-piece lights please post them up, and let me know where you got them. thanks

Very interested in this too! I have to replace my headlights soon since one has a hole in it. I'd love to find one piece headlights, other than stupid projectors. No offense to anyone, just not what my car needs lol.

I don't think mine look like crap.

I think you're talking about a 94-98 year and I have yet to see a 2 pc set that impresses me. If you haven't already, you should check americanmuscle, mybodykit, cjponyparts, etc...they all offer a pretty large selection and are decent quality. One website that I was pretty skeptical of to begin with is mrbodykit.com. the name really turned me off, but they actually have pretty high quality products and reasonable prices! as far as projectors go, I agree with you...not for me, while I do like your lights BillyT

I think the 2-piece clears I got from AM look great. I've only had them on a few weeks and already had a LOT of compliments on them.

There is nothing gay about having the kind of updated modern style headlights that are on EVERY SINGLE new car on the road these days from little imports, to sports cars, to luxury sedans, rather than sticking with the horribly outdated style lights that came stock on these cars over a decade ago and are a hold over from the 80's. Show me a cool modern non-retro sports car that does NOT have projector head lights. Good luck! Marenello? Check. Gallardo? Check. 911? Check. Elise? Check. Viper? Check. Corvette? Check. 350Z? Check. G35? Check. M3? Check. S4? Check. CTS? Check. TL? Check. XKR? Check. Vanquish? Check. Hell even the Ford Fusion has them. Kinda reminds me of the hicks I used to argue with who thought the pop-up style headlights of their Firebirds were hear to stay, even after the Corvette and every other sports car including Ferrari dumped them. But of course that was "ghey" to those mullet rocking geniuses. Then again some of them still put louvers on their rear windows! LMAO! Having out dated non-projector headlights these days is akin to having a cassette deck in the dash and furry dice hanging from the mirror. And THAT's ghey! View attachment 198832

He's not saying that newer style projector headlights and HIDs are ghey (I don't think), but simply that aftermarket ones for the SN-95 cars don't look all that great. Honestly, I tend to agree with him. I would LOVE to have a set of projector headlights because I really like the nice beam of light they produce, but I just don't like the looks of the headlight itself. The only projector setups that look decent to me are the retrofit ones that use the stock style headlight. I may actually do that one day.

OP, i think youre pretty much stuck with the stockers or have to subject yourself to the ricer-inspired projector headlamps. i havent come across anything but those lamps that have been discussed already. that doesnt mean that they dont exist either though.

The aero cars look best with clear setups that dont have the amber reflector in them IMHO.

FordTaurusSHO94 · Jan 18, 2011

What corners are those? My headlights look fine, but the rubber around the corner parts is looking rough.

1fun281 · Jan 19, 2011

You can ask 98cobra281, he has the smoked 2 piece ones that are a little on the pricey side, they look great and fit perfectly with no issues. I dont remember where he bought them from, but theyre supposed to be the top of the line aftermarket brand.

just_a_guy84 · Jan 19, 2011

thanks everyone, I think I might be stuck with two piece lights now. the clears don't look too bad. To the dude that posted pictures of the edge...yeah that is exactly what I want, a nice stock looking one piece light, if I had waited one more year, I could have had them....thanks for rubbing it in...dick..

p.s. I have noticed that some people on forums are quickly offended. I must point out that all mentions of dickery are meant in a joking fashion...carry on

Personally, I think the best set up you're gonna get is what American muscle or its competitors like LMR, Brothers performance and so forth offer. Their lights fits from what people say, and AM usually provides good quality.

on another note, I love projector headlights. I just dont think whats on the market fits the style for me and some other mustang fans for the 94-04 mustangs. I know others will be in disagreement with me which is fine, however, the nicest projector set ups ive seen is ones that are fabricated by someone on their own using a standard smoked oe headlight, and retrofiting a acura TL or honda s2000 projector inside of it. Someone on the forum was trying to market them and his headlights were by far the nicest ive seen.

And neither did you.

just_a_guy84 · Jan 21, 2011

I think you guys with the two-piece clears have convinced me that is what I need. thanks.

Are there any one-piece headlights for the sn95 that don't look like crap?
