Nigelp Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I am wanting to change the front bumper reflectors with either smoked ones or some sort of black mesh ones (if they exist). I have seen the smoked reflectors on ebay, but I cant seem to find any photos of cars with any fitted. If anyone has any pics, or links to a thread (i`ve tried searching !), I`d appreciate it. They will be going on a Black Zed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stez Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I'm sure BigPhil replaced his reflectors with mesh and will pop up soon with a picture for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I`ll try and get some kind of film then. I have put some black insulation tape over to see what they look like, I think they are better than bright orange, so I`ll definately be doing something.

GIXXERUK Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 i did mine recently, changed them to clear reflectors (the 06-07 are different) its a pita that the front bumper has to come off but it isnt as bad as it looks once you've done it, i tried everything and there is absolutely no way you can access them without the bumper off its fairly straight forward the worst bolts are where it attachs to the wings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris`I Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Nice fitting advice, just a shame it cant be applyed to UK cars +1 - we have an extra bottle on the passenger side, means taking the bumper off one half at a time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
