Brand New Cobalt Headlight Housings with paint defects

Guys,

We have a few sets of brand new cobalt headlights that we are offering at a discount.

These lights were opened, primed, and painted black. During painting, there was a problem with the paint sprayer and the paint does not meet our quality control standards.

There is some paint build up and dust particles in the paint.

I firmly believe that these can be salvaged with a little time and effort, or even just repainted and will look fine from a few feet away.

Will put up some pics in the next day or so.

These will be sold unsealed, and you get housing, bezel, and lense. You need to sand and repaint, seal your lense, and install with your existing wiring


$68.99 SHIPPED for a pair
($45.00 + 23.99shipping)

Guys,

Order site is up for these with one pic - Untitled Document

Like I said, the bezels need some scuffing/sanding and repainting. There is no DAMAGE to any of these, and the lenses are brand new and wrapped in plastic wrap.

Think about it as you are buying a perfect pair of lenses and getting spare parts for free.

Thanks!

Steve

1. Like I said in my original post, without a lot of time and effort, they will not look like brand new quality. The time is a factor as we are busy with existing orders, website upgrades, and future plans.

2. Having 6 sets of premade retros in inventory ties up a lot of our money until they sell.

3. People need parts for projects and this is a good deal.

Would you possibly just sell the lenses? Or no?

The rest of the headlight is no good to us if we sell just the lenses, so no. All the pieces go together.

That was a test page that i just threw up quickly. If you want a set now we accept bank checks only. No money orders or personal checks. Bank checks are the safest. If you would like a set please PM me. These sets include 2 complete headlights. (lenses, bezels, housings)
