The headlights from the white car seems to be the units used on the GTA or a replica. The unit on the red car are originals with the BMW-look light rings fitted.

True! The GTA head light units are completly custom made and not available for the public. The "glas" is actualy lexan or something similar.

Biggie has just added the 'plates' after the glasses, in front of the reflectors!
The headlights shown in the pictures from the Japanese 155 funs are a hole different story! See more carefully those pictures and you will see what I mean. There is not any ‘plate’ in them!

that?s why my post only said: that if you want to do biggies way, you can, the one?s from the white one(GTA?) you first posted I see and understand have a whole other light, as well as the red one with clear lenses on! :)
I would love to get a hold of those clear lenses :D

me too, the rest is probably quite 'easy' {for the red one}! Maybe I'll have a go like the second red one {no clear lenses and 'angel eyes' for the high beams only}.

I suppose you could make clear lenses if you are willing to pay a glass-maker what it costs to make a cast and melt in new glass. !? but probably quite expensive going that route :P

I think it does not worth the efford/money!
Maybe if it was for a real GTA replica.

The white car's lights are interesting...several people on 155.org looked into doing this and even tracked down the make of the BTCC lights (from an Italian motorbike) but making the whole thing was a problem then. But there seem to be more people experienced with fibreglass or carbon these days...so it might be possible.
