Not to be the class idiot here, but do you just want the metal clips?
You said the housing is cracked, but want to keep them because they’re red. They’d be fairly easy to fix. How large are the cracks (picture maybe?).
The lx lenses are nicer to me as well. If you’d rather refresh those though, that’s pretty easy.
Wait a minute, this is Bill’s thread. Bill, I can paste the area of my build we’re I redid mine if that would be helpful. I think they came out pretty nice.
Ha that was me about the housing and yes I could probably just spray the new housings. The clips I was talking about are the ones in blue circles. One of mine is completely broken but the others don’t look bad but for whatever reason the lens doesn’t stay snug in there any more, like the little prong on the clip with the teeth just aren’t biting down. The housing is fine though other wise for being original it’s my lens, they have some cracks. I think the LX lenses are the cleanest looking but I also like the cobra lenses as well. Any who it looks as though those clips can just pull off or be replaced. Not sure where to find them.
It's one of the clearcoats we use at work. Here's another view.
These sat in a junkyard for 15 years before I redid them. See @Noobz347 , I said junkyard again.
Don’t over look the 83-84 tails. They look like cobras but dont have the small lines running through them. I think those look the nicest. That’s what I put on mine. Dave has the same ones.

Was pretty easy. Decided to skip clear for now. Mostly I used a old headlight restore kit I had laying around. Used 3000 grit wet and dropped a little lower for some deep scratches. Then polished with meg’s 105/205. Used trim black on the housing and for the black on the lense. Tossed silver inside the housing as well.
