Steve, the stainless inserts wont fit true unless there is a bow from
headlight to headlight. It looks like a poor attempt at a mod. The ends wing out past headlight lines. may be a good idea to look at how one fits befor you buy too many. I made several of them for members with rem stainless. you can make the bow by folding lips 2 inch wider then trim off the excess with a plasma torch. Lift the torch and add extra heat mid cut. leaves some slag that requires extra work to clean. Bright stainless was too much for my bus colors. I'm thinking it would be cool to have it brightstainless if there was a chrome bumper but I stuck with a buff finish stainless insert because it was less flashy and more complementary. I picked up the stainless rem sheets for less than $20. and made 12 units before I got the curv looking good. I notice that the buff finish must have some issues because there is a slight rusty residu after 2 years (easy to wash off) but the bright stuff sitting outside has no rust. could be they buff it up with some steel or the buff material is inferior to my bright rems. How much are your inserts???

Stephen,
Are this the cover that replaces the plastic cover between the two headlights?

Wish I needed some. Any suggestions on polishing or replacing the clear plastic headlight covers on the LXi? I thought about having a couple pieces of tempered glass stuck in there.

Brad, I took mine off many thousands of miles ago. I also swapped out the stock high and low beams for 90mm Xenin HID's. One of my future projects is to take my lexan covers, drill two 90mm holes in them, bring the XID headlights out 1.5 inches, paint the back side of the lexan black and reinstall. (wish I had a pic). This will give the effect of bug eye headlamps jutting out from a smooth bumper. David Brady '02 LXi, NC brad barton wrote:

David,
You obviously have too much time on your hands. I'm fine with flush headlights behind covers, but I hate the hazy scratches. I've redone corian and can probably redo the covers if I have the right stuff. We're currently considering a trip to Destin/Fort Walton Beach this January. Once I got there, I'd probably have blowing sand. Brad Brad Barton 00LXiDFW bbartonwx@... To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com From: dmb993@...
