I am planning to buy a set, but I would like to know how the quality is.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks

Your car, your choice. If you want them and like them then go for it. Just be aware that the reality is non OEM kit is known for variable quality - that's usually where your saving comes from. Buyer beware and all that.
But go for it if you like them. And ignore the comments from those who like to opine but do so with limited self awareness.
And wit.
Check out Cobra and his car on here as it's a lovely piece of work he has done. Worth sending him a PM too :thumbs:
Thanks for your reply. The quality of the performance is from what I have seen and read the same as the original. But the build quality is the thing I am worried about.
I just want them as an extra set for the car. But maybe buying an extra used oem set and painting them black is also a great option.
No one in their right mind would be driving a Peugeot-like-Porsche 991 Turbo right? :bandit:
Sensitive bunch today!!
Nothing wrong with black headlights I was referring to the quality! They look shocking.
It was just a bit of Dutch Sarcasm
I just decided to purchase an extra set of OEM Headlights. These are going to be popped open, painted matt black inside (only chrome part will be the ring around the projector lens) reassembled and get a gloss black vinyl trim around the outside ring.
The aftermarket headlights have a lot of problems. I got the chance to check 2 sets and they both had flaws. The biggest is a production flaw on the headlight lens itself (a little air bubble right in the center of the lens) 3 of the headlights had this.
This is the route I thought about going down, I have split headlights on RS4's, RS6's and BMW's and after the RS6 headlights that where a complete mare, I was left virtually no fingers left. I am put off doing any more.
