    GTM Headlight covers

    Yes, we still make them. In the beginning we did not care for the fit of the FFR headlight cover (too small) so we made our own.

    Fast forward to today. FFR has an issue with their supplier and subsequently we have had a few calls about covers. We are making a couple of sets until FFR gets back to making them.

    Our supplier made a bunch of the plastic for the Ford VS Ferrari movie so he is pretty good. The plastic is different also, virtually un breakable and much more crack resistant.

    HTH Richard.

    As I understand the nose changed but the headlights are still the same shape.

    $120 shipped per pair. These are just oversized a little and easily hand sanded to fit.

    I’m still a ways off from needing these for my GTM, any issues with future availability or will you be suppling these for the foreseeable future?

    Where the screws are will always crack no matter whether they are the FFR covers or from northracecars if you overtighten the screws. My method....don't even touch the handle of the screwdriver. Use a dab of clear silicone caulk on the threads of the screw to act as loctite. Pinch the lens down tight to the hood with one hand and run the screw down by just spinning the shaft of the screwdriver with the other hand. As soon as you meet resistance, stop turning. The force you were using to pinch the lens tight to the hood is now the force that the screw head is holding in place. No matter how tempted you are to give it just a little bit more torque....don't.

    All right, I guess the leak any way so have to take them off to clean but not hard.

    Thanks.
