Guest DarrenLee Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Hi I am new to the Supra scene. I have just bought a Silver Supra 3.0 n/a and pick it up on Friday. It needs a bit of TLC but one thing I noticed was that the headlights were 'yellow' and really made the car look old. How do I upgrade these? What's the cheapest way to get maximum impact? Will post some pictures once I have given her a real good wash, polish and wax over the weekend. Thanks for any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a98pmalcolm Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Face Light headlights are the upgarde. If you want to unyellow them 1st try t-cut. If that dont work uses fine emory paper with water. The re T-cut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 There are 3 RHD headlight options. You could either clean your headlights or fit a new pair of facelift or UK spec headlights. 1. 93-96 J-spec pre-facelift headlights - Chrome inners, plastic lenses (incl. sidelight) http://whifbitzperformancetuning.co.uk/images/japspecheadlight.jpg 2. 96-02 J-spec facelift headlights - Dark grey inners, plastic lenses (no sidelight, facelift indicators/sidelights needed) http://whifbitzperformancetuning.co.uk/images/Toyota_4963b5c910fde.jpg 3. 93-96 UK Spec headlights - Chrome inners, glass lenses (incl. sidelight) http://whifbitzperformancetuning.co.uk/images/Toyota_4963b61417821.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guigsy Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Cheapest result I've seen is to polish them with toothpaste. it worked great too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc_p Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Thanks guys. If I cant get them clean and decide to buy some new headlights where should I be looking and what will I have to pay? Quite cheap to be honest mate, you can pick up a brand new set of facelift headlights for only about £400 from Toyota. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
