Default headlights?

does anyone know of a kit to eliminate the flip up headlights?

i was thinking about doing this but i am not sure how it will look with the callaway aerobody. just an idea so easy on the flames.


i already have the aerobody! my christmas gift to me :D

Yes, but it costs $999. Still want info? Please tell us about your Callaway. (Assuming since you were able to obtain an aerobody.)

http://www.breathlessperformance.com... and I don't like the look. it is perfectly flush with the hood, not slightly raised as it is on the C5s...

I (and scorp) have converted to the Hella kit... Except Scorp has added different bulbs. I will, when I get money again... I mean - a job again...

Hella kit is just glass that fits in the stock location with replaceable bulbs. Brighter and easier to change in the future. Mine are on order.

thank you for the responses. what would you like to know scorp? the price the quality etc. yes you can order it from callaway for $7300 + shipping. it is not for the faint of heart will probably run almost that again to have it installed and painted. no you can't order just the front bumper. i tried many years ago when the kit was only $6000. it does not come with the hood vents that was for turbo cars only from what i have been told. however i have not tried to order them. they may sell those separately. there really isn't a whole more than that i bought it because of the aerodynamic advantage.

Well I just assumed you have a Callaway car since you were able to obtain the aerobody. I love the Callaway cars, so I wanted to hear about it. :)
