What are these lights ?

Hi guys. Just taken delivery of my car. Bought sight unseen. They have these headlights with red inserts, are they factory on some models or has some one stripped the lens off and painted them?

Looks like someone painted some of the stock plastic parts. Maybe some one with a red car will want to trade you.

Horrible sales pitch :p

They didn't even try to match any stock red of an 8 either; if it was VRM you might get a bite ... if you feel like it, you might be able to remove it, hope its plastidip! But everyone has different tastes, someone might like it I see a lot of mods that make me cringe while the owner is in love, so ... to each their own

good luck finding a cheap set of replacements

Just pull the lenses and paint over the red with black.

Fixed.

Just trade, some ricer will go nuts over these. I'd suggest the purelyrx8 Facebook group, it's full of dipshit ricers.

Thanks guys. I've found a set at the local breakers so I'll probably end up buying those and sticking these on eBay lol

When you sell it make sure to put "Limited Edition". People seem to go nuts over those words
