Headlamp upgrade 156?

[McCoy]

Hi there

I have an X-reg 2000 156 and was wondering if anybody knows of any companies that do decent looking headlamp upgrades? I know you can get the lexus style clusters for the taillights but there appears to be nothing for the front.

Ideally I'm looking for someone who knows how I can get the modern Alfa look with the similar lights like the ones that are on the 159's.

You could 'GTA style' them - look for guides on here - it basically involves splitting them apart, spraying the silver bits black & re-sealing - or like me, the lazy way buy them alrady done by some-one else
Makes a big difference to the overall look

Letting your kid stand next to your Alfa with a hammer in his hand? You Sir, are a very brave man!

- to be fair to Him, He has as much respect for the car (& Alfas in general) as me (feel the pride) - was doing that to wind me up

If you want more light then fit some Osram Night Breaker bulbs ....

I think there are "different" headlights availible such as angel eye types but I'd be wary of buying them unless its a reputable seller as the ones I've seen have been LHD only.

this is really all you want to do to the front lights it is easily one of the best cheapest things you can do also consider putting xenon units within this will boost the price by quite a bit but please for the love of god dont fit lexus style anything to an Alfa they look crap
