Chrome inside of kouki headlight cracked, any replacement? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

The chrome inside piece of my kouki healight has many little cracks in it somehow. I am guessing that it was from the cold? I was wondering if there was anywhere that sold a single headlight or just the chrome piece that goes inside of it? Has anyone had this happen to one of their lights before? Can it be fixed? Thanks.

Yeah, same thing happened to both of mine. I noticed it just recently, too. I haven't looked into it too much, but I think the best bet is to buy a replacement headlight from Nissan. Either that or just take them apart and remove the chrome completely, some people like the blacked out look.

I highly doubt you can just buy the chrome inside, since the headlight is just one part in any OEM catalog.

I guess just live with it or paint it? A headlights costs sooo much money....maybe you can eventually find a used cracked kouki headlamp with good inner components.
