Looking to replace my headlights on my car because of them turning yellow... I think the 1 piece ones look really good and clean. I dont want the altezza junk or anything that looks like rice. My car is blue, with a black hood and was thinking something smoked, or something with a black inlay inside. Here is a picture of my car....

To me it looks cleaner (the ones on that red lx above). The 3 piece stock lights are usually worn, at least mine are. They are fading and turning yellow. Mine are also starting to get loose and the corner lights are mis-placing themself making then not even to the headlight. I just think the ones above would be a nice upgrade.

Years ago on Stangnet, there was a huge thread going about wanting a one-peice headlight design. They compared them to a "BMW" one-peice headlight design for a fox. Now that we got 'em, everybody hates 'em!!!! LOLOLOLOLOL

i was considering putting one piece lights on my car as well, but i have yet to see a pic of foxbody that has them installed that makes me say...."i need THOSE".....i was actually looking at the halo lights. but i think these guys have hit the nail on the head....they are old cars and modern lights just look out of place. i will be staying with the same style thats on there now. i may upgrade to HID lights or something, but it will be the 6 piece design. but it's your ride, if you like it, roll with it

Those do look flared. If you look back in his posts, he had issues with an aftermarket k member pushing the front tires forward. I had a bear moving mine back where they belonged after my qa1. That is likely how he dealt with his.

He has 275's up front and needed to flare them for the wheels to clear

They fit before i put the K member on, but after they were horribly offset forward, which i expected, though

i like the smooth look of the one pieces. but are they adjustable? do they mount on a headlight adjusting bracket or do they just bolt in on the four corners like the turn signal/marker lights mount?
