FD3S headlight full-trasparent plastic. Possible?

Like in the foto normal projector of FD3S are this.



This give the car a sort of "old" appearance, at least for me, becouse in Italy only old or cheap car have not-trasparent plastic.

1)Is there a manufacturer that sell full trasparent plastic for FD3S light and make the lamp visible from the outside?





2)Cold white light lamp (not HID or Xenon complete kit) can be a problem for FD3S highlights?

Thank You

Yeah but what I search id not anni aftermarket headlight. But a trasparent part of stock headlight that are really transparent. And not like in photo where plastic don't allow TO see lamp inside the headlight.


Btw is "Peperoni" with only 1 "p" and id a vegetables. With pepperoni in USA they mean a type off meat correct?

search for "sleek headlight kits". re-amemiya, knightsports, c-west, east bear, and many many more produce kits. Beware that some kits fit better than others and some don't fit at all.

I don't mean kit like this



But original Headlight with transparent (really transparent) plastic.

Then "vanishing" headlight without the shitty "glass" that, when headlight is open/up don't permeit to see the internal lamp.

I'm an FC (1986-91) Guy!
So Yes, I can purchase cars for what you would end up paying for that Light kit!
But as I said,the Kit is a quality Kit,and that is what you would like to have.The Ebay stuff just doesn't perform like the SakeBomb Garage stuff does.
