I'd have to ship them to Ig0r anyway so just have them repainted. You are a UAE baller, act like it! You guys wipe your asses with $100 bills and use $1000's to light your cigars. If you drop your wallet full of cash you probably wouldn't pick it up because it's dirty, you'd just buy a new one and stuff it with new bills.

But seriously Sam hit me up if you have interest and we'll see if we can make it work.

dont plan on shipping taking a week. it took me a little longer and im just in fl. unless you do express or something and then you're getting raped on shipping. i spent 2 weeks in a rental while working on my car and it was almost as much as buying a new set. my vote is to get bb's extra lights done here then just swap out on your car and sell your stock headlights.

contact igor..

i think if you send them to igor, it takes like 3-4 buisness days including shipped both ways.

i know its 3-4 days is 3-4 days lol but maybe you can get your hands on a relatives car or gf car or something?

or maybe bb would let you "borrow" his set of lights when they come in you can install them send your lights out to igor, give bb like 50-100$ for the rental and mail them back out once your lights come back

if not igor might even have a loaner set.

theres no way it takes 3-4 business days unless you overnight it each way. and im sure that cost from dubai would be ridiculous if its even possible.

Hmm...

Well you can either get BB's headlights like everyone said and have them shipped to me. My work wont take longer than 1-2 days, I'm on top of my game right now, so any ship ins go out within a business day or 2 .

You can also try to get a set from ebay...
http://motors.search.ebay.com/search...p=2%26fsoo%3D2

have them shipped directly to me and I'll ship them to you once its done.

Shipping to Dubai will be around $130 for International Priority mail which takes about 6-10 days.

Sam, I got a pretty sick idea...

Once you get the your headlights on the car, all those ballers will bug out and want headlight work done on their car, then... you can have them remove their headlights, give em to you, and you mail it out to me. Obviously you'll tell em it'll take about 3 weeks, but you can charge them up the A$$, I'm sure they wont have a problem paying.

Haha so it ain't only Black Betty ballin' around eh? (P.S. I'm already doing that with other parts shshshh..haha)

had a look at the eBay products, they're either priced too high or damaged (broken mounts, scratched etc..)

Ok, now the question is, how do I package my headlights to ensure they don't get damaged on their way there? Should I make a foam mold for them to sit in? (Even more $$ )

Massive amount of bubble wrap around all corners of the lights, packing peanuts and you should be fine. They fit perfectly fine in a 25x25x25 box.

You all are forgetting there is one more person with a set of headlights for sale.......ME!

I have the set that came on my car availble like next week. They have been on my car for 11K miles and are in mint condition. I will ship wherever you like in the U.S. for $700 for the set.

I got one person who says he wants them but until I got $$, they are available.
