Headlight Corner Clearing (Getting rid of the amber) ?

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has cleared the corner amber piece in the headlight on a 03-04, and if so what did they put in place of the orange/amber piece, or if they left it naked.

I have experience with baking and opening headlight assemblies for an s2000 so I do not think it should be that hard but I would like to know if it is indeed "doable". If anyone could lay down some knowledge for me and maybe what to expect, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Tony

I've seen TINT/Overlay options done on the E90 that completely gets rid of that ugly V-Amber, but I have not heard of anyone baking there headlights to remove it.

Thankyou for replying to my thread!

I have seen those too but they look very "cheap". You can actually see it. I guess that is one alternative.

Unfortunately, the Z4’s headlights do not open, so there is no way to put anything into them that looks like angel eyes. Sorry about that.

So the only option is to get an 05 headlight assembly??? Would it bolt up or would there be some modifications?

ONLY the 05's will bolt up

06's i heard require a reflash or significant work,

There was a set of 05 headlights with aftermarket HID's someone snatched it up at $440!!!!
