Knew a guy that had a Foose, front end looks like the old '60s. Never knew the parts were so guarded, good luck.

Good luck. I wanted the Foose headlights minus all of the bumper changes and such. I just wanted the light buckets.

You can just purchase them. http://northamericantuning.com/catal...iohnfvhi1mc9o6

If I was doing this id try to find the right size to fit the bumper maybe "HELLA" makes some in that size?http://www.classicdesignconcepts.com...t_detail&p=232

The Foose Stallion headlight system was one unit with the front bumper were they not? I don't think they had seperate buckets, just one piece since they had made the new light design.

Yea your prob right but I wanted to customize it to fit.... problem is I bought painted headlights and they have got condensation now and to be honest I rather remove the lens and put lights with there own lens on the actual circle

CDC did this when our cars first came out and the problem is the gap between the bucket and the facia. It's not noticable when the lens is there , but once you remove the lens it is very noticable ...

Yes it is, which is why the Foose piece is so nice. With the bucket molded into the bumper cover there are no gaps. It would be nice if a company had actually made a set of buckets that were slightly larger and filled in the gap problem.

Yea I remember those .. exactly what I was thinking but I guess the gap would mess things up.. looks like I am just going to have to take then off and reseal them... very upset about it because they are the best mod I bought and rpi designs said they never had a condensation complaint ...

RPI is where I got mine and mine fogged up too. There was no noticeable gap between the lens and bucket , but I assumed that was the problem and did fix it. I first got rid of the condensation by pulling the bulbs out to make an opening for the moisture to escape. I then put a bright shop lamp in front of the lens about 6" away and let it heat the moisture so it would escape through the bulb hole. It took a few times , but eventually all the moisture was gone. I then put some RTV Silicone around the seal between the lens and bucket and the moisture has never come back ...
