Another Lens
 

Yep theres another les smashed by stone chips, bugger:mad:. Lens ordered from the stealers.

Did anybody ever find a proper headlight protector for the D2 8?

mine are plastic. are they not all plastic ?

Pre face Glass... Facelift plastic....

+++

I was looking for protectors for my FL and couldnt find any, I wanted to project my bi xenons through the tough winter months next year, as I plan on polishing them up when the weather improves as they are in a right state!

the only stuff i've seen is film like this
I've seen D3 acrylic protectors (example here) but never any for a D2 :(

Try this stuff. Has a good rep.

Checked out that site... http://www.lamin-x.co.uk/gallery/red.htm

A possibility of going red on the rear indicators without the huge expense of buying complete lenses from the US?

Ordered+++. Had a look here last night as i remembered it from BIGSTU's 8. But i'd be right in thinking that it won't stop my glass from smashing just the smashed bits from falling out?

I've posted this before somewhere, probably when the other lens was smashed but i have seen a D2 in Germany with plastic protectors.

Good stuff, I rate it. The fog lamps on my old A4 where tinted yellow with it.

Film arrived quick, quick thanks to Neil at Lamin-X, picked up the new lens from Audi, so Friday i got to sticking. Dezzy's skills need more practice but it's ok for a first attempt i suppose and i've learnt for next time. Thinking it might be a bit dark for every day (night) use. Maybe a lighter tint for winter?

Looks really nice mate +++

Just watch out for the BiB :(

looks great Dezzy! +++

Thanks guys, i'm not 100% happy with it but it's due to my fitting not the product, the film it's self s really good. Side repeaters to do.

BiB does worry me a bit Jayzee i don't want to get a tug, i find it really hard to hide my beer.:D

I'm digging those headlamps. +++ I'd love that stuff a bit lighter though.

Lamin-X is pretty big in RSA and most of the guys use it.
There are various types/shades/colours of Tint but the more popular one is called "Tint" which is a 6% Tint.
I will be doing my Headlamps shortly in this colour due to the one lens being a new lens and the other Old it looks Odd.

Some Pics of the 6 % on an A3.

The tint on mine is gunsmoke

I used Gunsmoke on my Tail lights of the Cab. It is quite a bit Darker than the "Tint" 6 %. +++

Just ordered the lighter tint as the Gunsmoke is a bit too dark enough in the winter, does look good tho

Pics Pleez..... if possible... Tx.

:ROFL: Tx Dezzy.... anytime once youv'e done the deed +++

Sorry it's been a while, and i've taken photos with my phone and the sun is a bit like it reflecting of my immaculately presented paint work. :D Pfff
