Carbon headlight covers

Would like 50 pounds shipped for these.

As you can see 2 small damages on top.
And... 1 cover is missing 2 mounting holes.

Therefor I couldn't use them with my Rogue rev6 lights, the holes didn't align.

Perhaps these do fit on the OEM lights, or you could poly the missing parts.

Hi, one question:

"perhaps they fit oem" ? means you dont know if they are for the mr2 headlights ?

They are for MR2, but:

As I stated, and showed on the picture:

2 mounting holes have been removed by the previous owner.
I checked them with my rogue rev6 lights, and those holes don't align.

But what I don't know is how they fit/align with the OEM covers.
So, perhaps they fit straight on.
Perhaps they don't.
Perhaps you could drill an extra hole.
Or perhaps you could mould some extra holes with some poly work.

Still here.

Just to be clear ones more:

These do fit on top. Only thing which isn't sure, is if they are mountable with the existing holes on these covers.

Try and fitting it to OEM lights might lighten up some uncertainties and make someone buy these.

Would you buy these if you are not sure if they will even fit your headlights?

Don't have OEM lights, so can't help.
They do fit. It's only the mounting holes which COULD be a problem.

But that can be fixed with a extra screw, or some poly.
The price is cheap enough?

problem is without the mounting holes that are missing they will rattle - the will fit but wont be fully secure.

plus the light damage..

Damage is only noticeable if you look very closely.
They might rattle, as is, fair enough.

Therefore the option to make an extra hole.

Anyhow, no one wants to offer on these?
I paid €100,- for these, so am going to make a loss on these anyways.

But I understand.

Thought they were more expensive though. Did they drop in price?
