That would work for lights I guess... but it doesn't shine up that well. I had a friend that had it on his mazda 3, as a clear bra and even after a wax it didn't shine like the rest of the car

no not really its compairing headlights w/ headlights and which ones were designed properly. It has nothing to do with the cars themselves.

you should be thankful that someone is even making these....there are no aftermarket lights for this car besides the ebay crap.....if you dont like them or dont think they are a good idea then dont buy them....its as simple as that.

yes, really.
contour=car that has been out of prodction for 5 years, and was a $15-24K car at the time.
c6 corvette=brand new production, and $50K car.
don't get me started on the ferarri. 
plus, these are @$500 aftermarket headlamp assemblies, not oem at near supercar levels (go price them out if you would like to compare).
quit pissing on this thread.

Not designed properly? Give me a f***in break! Until YOU come out with, or find a company to produce a better set, STFU! A lot of people(including myself) like the look of the Morettes, and the recessed lenses. But honestly, take a look at the lights, look really hard! How much painted surface is there to get rock chips? Not a lot! So like I said, if you get enough rock chips to require repainting them, you're out ~$50 or less. But if you want to tailgate every car to the point that you get THAT many rock chips, you deserve it anyway.

Not 100% sure, but I would suspect on Corvette and Ferrari, those covers serve much more of an aerodynamic purpose than a paint protection one. Kind of how the old Jag E types had covers over their lenses.

Don't know if anyone has brought this up already but, while these lights do look amazing, I'm wondering just how well they will hold up to paint chips, rocks, etc. I'd hate to paint them and then have to re-paint every couple of months. If only there was a lens on the outside that covers the entire housing, they would be perfect.
I wonder if clear GTS light covers would fit???????
