Well my car from the day I bought it has had terribly fogged up headlights.

I've always hated it because in my opinion - nice clear/clean looking headlights on the 99-04 Mustangs are one of the things that really bring out their aggressive look.

They were the worst when I first bought it - here it is on the lot 2 days before I bought it:

Here it is after I used silver polish & hard scrubbing/sanding on them. It did really good on the passenger side but didn't do much of anything for the driver side.

SO - I received my brand new smoked headlights today - I wanted the even darker ones, however I got these at a discount from 170$ for only $150

With these -the lights are much more clear and bright.
I still need to aim them - but I'll do that tomorrow.

I'll get a better picture tomorrow when its light out considering the post-installation pics were all taken about an hour ago(midnight)

Anyway - it may just be a v6 - but I still want it to look good :P

I am - it was just one of the main things that made the car visually unappealing.

I won't get my money's worth out of it probably - but either way hopefully it makes it more attractive to potential buyers.

Looks good- I also have smoked with clear corner headlights (fogs too) I think they should be a requirement for 99-04 Mustangs. If you don't mind me asking where'd you get yours from? I got mine from Americanmuscle.com and for some reason mine seem darker. It might just be the pictures because mine are way darker in person vs pictures. Good luck with the sale, sad to see a stang guy leave but sometimes Mustangs are a bit of a hassle and I know insurance, fuel economy and practicality for daily driving hurts them quite a bit especially when your on a budget.
If I remember right your looking at GTPs and I have to say its a great choice for a dd that can still haul ass on the weekends. I considered one when I was looking at cars when I was 16-17 and sometimes regret not buying one.

Lol its cool - I understand it.

Fuck I used Mamamia as my SN on so many things in the past, games, forums, all shit like that.

Then that damn Musical becomes popular and people think I base it off that and some people assume its some chick.

I actually started using it because one day I was like 10 and trying to think of an account name for Diablo (lol, i miss those days) and my mom was playing Super Mario 64 and I heard Mario yell mamamia at the start up screen and decided to name myself that.

Such a wondrous story, I know
