    Hi i got myself a set of carbon head lights i have split them apart and have cleaned the webing to the internal lense, why i have them open i have noticed the carbon is more of a matt finish was this the way they came out or were they more like the rest of the shiny carbon found on a scud.

    cheers

    What you have found is totally correct. The carbon used on the inside of the headlights is a matte finish.

    Did they split easily, and how did the cleaning go?

    Is it possible to replace the F430 headlight screen (the transparent cover)?

    I don't think the solution is an entire $$$$ new headlight unit.

    i split them very easy and the webing needs a good buff with a terry cloth, i am going to reseal the lense so that it will be easy enough to remove again so that when webing comes back i can easily remove and repair again.

    cheers thanks for info.
