Have you modified the headlights?
It looks like the car is tired after a long night laugh

- easy to miss!

It is a BMW colour; Boston Green Metallic.It has quite a bit of mica in it and really 'pops' when the sun hits it.

Headlamps have LED's and chrome caps on so not quite so 'Clarence' innocent

I was wondering about the headlamps and not understanding the lack of Clarence look, it certainly works well.
Did you request that colour I haven't seen another one, with the mica in it must just sparkle a fabulous car in immaculate condition it's a credit to you.

It looks special! Not a big fan of eyelids but it's a definitely well done job.

Hello James. Headlights look fantastic compared to standard. I saw these on a VW Beetle and thought about them but was worrying they might be a pain for the garage when removing the wings and as mine seems to spend its life in there at the moment thought it best to leave it. Do you know if they can be left on when removing the wings?

- thanks Kevin thumbs

Yes, the covers can be left on as they attach to the lamp units and not the wings.....
