Best I could come up with the last time this car was posted about was that it's custom fit mid-late 90's Ford Taurus/Mercury Sable headlights. Definitely look like them.

I heard years ago about a mod with DB7 headlights - they do look sort of similar (altho not quite the same size reflectors)

In my opinion, this modification detracts from the 'trademark' look of the 928. Similar to the way that slant nose business was put on the beautiful 930.
