Default Anyone have a brown headlight bucket???

I have one the wrong color, a brown one would save me the trouble of sanding / painting it.

My car is Mocha Brown, but any shade will do for now.

FYI - they do not fare well being run over at 70mph.

I'm guessing the missing screws are lodged in my front left tire.

Brown!?

Forget matching the bucket and consider this a sign from God to paint the whole freakin' car a new color.

I've thought about making a harlequin 928. This could be the beginning. I already have a red door, two silver fenders.......

Ouch that would really suck.
I would also be banging my head if I ran mine over.

I wish you good luck with the other possibilities

I hope it’s not too shiny, or Hacker will have to paint the rest of the car to match.
