Oh no - damaged crystal headlight

Noticed this damage from a stray rock a couple of days ago.

Has definately happened almost straight after the car was registered. Was never there before.

I don't actually remember hearing a rock pelt it..

Its funny thats the first thing I worried about when I installed mine.

It just had to happen to the pretty lights didnt it. $10 says it would have hit your bonnet if you had the original lights installed. haha


I doubt that crack can be repaired mate. She's gone the way of the dodo.

Yeah hehe.

Ahh no big deal. I actually didn't even care when I saw it. Its like nothing compared to the car not being drivable.

Stone chips on the bonnet and lights are great because they give you an excuse to get a full respray and fresh new lights one day.

Man I need to get these headlights aligned somehow though. They are terribly out of wack. Like internally gut them and physically band the guts of them to point the right way or something.. Anyone tried this?

Have you had a go at turning those screws on the back?

You should be able to get them to point to the left, but they'll always sheer off towards the right because of the reflector design.

Really just requires a lot of fiddling. And turn them gently. You might thread them and then you will have to take off the glass to manually push the reflector into position. :P
