CDC is the only one that did it and they are not selling them to the public (they are not DOT approved).
If you want it, you'll have to do it yourself (take the plastic cover, buy a sealed lamp, glue it to the current chromed reflector, put the bulb from the back, paint the plastic inside piece if you want, and you are done!).

Car looks great though!!!! Although the grille has some warpage issues, not being a jerk but when you have a car that nice looking I have to find something wrong. Hahaha....

LOL, well you got me there. 3dCarbon problem.... Nothing I can do... Maybe will replace the Eleanor Grill next season with a different model than 3dCarbon. It is just too soft...

I actually don't think thats the grill thats warped, it looks to me like its the bumper. Maybe I'm wrong.
If you have a set of the 07+ headlights that do not have the black thing in the center. I believe it would be 10x's easier. When I baked a set of headlights, the black paint on the center thing started to chip off. THen while trying to fix it, I screwed up the chrome. Cheap plastic chrome.
Anyways, I have a set of already painted Redfire head light buckets I'd like to get rid of. If anyones interested, hit me up.

It's actually a shame when you think that a VW Golf II lamp, a car which was built like 16 years ago, has a better beam than a 2005 Mustang.
If you need any further help, shoot me a PM and I'll try to guide you through it.

Jeff, are you having problems with the Street Scene Center Foglight grill turning white with microcracks? I know yours doesn't see the outside as much as mine, but my grill is starting to look a little weathered.

That is a good and important point. I had mine painted, but now would go with an upainted to have some contrast again. If it looks weathered, maybe go and paint it black.

As far as "microcracks"?. That I haven't noticed at all. And believe me, when I was cleaning my car at MCA, I cleaned EVERYWHERE and got up close to the grill to get everything out.
