Thanks Paul, I’ll take a photo later but for now I’ll explain a bit more. Imagine a thin pressing with complex curvature and a variety of holes which is generally wasted. The pressing is visible from outside the car. I know galvanising can add significant thickness and similarly hot metal / thermal spraying may be an option but wondered if there were any other alternatives. If the pressings weren’t visible then I would do exactly what you say. An alternative would be to make sections of the correct profile then plug them in to cover the whole face but this would take a large amount of time and skill – if there’s an easier option then that would be preferred. I know some people have converted their cars to the later lights but I like the ones it has!
