Just got my headlights

Well I just recieved my headlights from IvoryGT. They look pretty awesome only one small problem though, where the turn signals are there's no cover and the bulb is naked. As seen in the picture below. Does anybody know where I can purchase a clear cover? Other than that it looks totally awesome. It was my first time purchasing something from someone from a forum so I kept PMing him because I was scared of getting scammed. He probably thinks I'm annoying as hell.



Awesome work IvoryGT.

Did you ask him to do it that way? Normally you have to custom cut a diffuser and glue it in. I used the covers from the 06+ headlights, or you can use fluorescent lighting grating found at home depot

Some people like the look of no lense on the signal, like me. I took the lenses off of my projector housings because I didn't like the diffuser on them. Here's what is looks like.

If you wanted the diffuser though, I would contact IvoryGT and see what he has to say, usually he is very reasonable and wants to make his customers happy

Do you have an aftermarket bulb or something? Any pictures of it on? Doesn't look that bad actually. Close-ups please. Thanks

I'm just running the OEM amber bulbs, I like the look, no closeups though. The 06+ turn signals do not stay on constantly like the 03-05 headlights

How does it look when it's on without the lense cover?
