Picture Game (Headlights that look like the Z4)

DJKapeesh · 01-18-2019, 11:03 AM

Hello everyone,

I have an idea for a project but will need your help
I'm looking for headlights on other cars that have the same shape as the E86/E85 Z4 Cars

For reference I will post a picture of the Z4 headlight.
The goal is to find headlights similar but more modern that I can attempt to replicate them.

With any luck you car experts will know a few.

I'll start (DB12 is like an upside down version with a dash) not usable but close

OLD DB12

Good Luck!

Of course it is, It's cosmetic. All of this is pointless just to see if I can make it look a little more modern

First off, why? The stock lights match the car perfectly. I don't see the point.

Second, good luck finding a modern light that will even come close to flitting and will work correctly with the LCM. Oh hold you, you say you want to replicated a modern one, meaning make your own light, this I gotta see.
Good luck...

This is more of a game than serious but yeah why not try to make them with 3D printing and see what happens?
