Managed to De-IrnBru the headlights on mine this morning using verydiscos great thread. Thanks for the info as without it I would not have attempted this mod.
Took about 1.5 hours to complete and I used a heat gun at its low setting and used it very gradually until the black glue reached the critical softened state.
I already had hids4u 3156 led indicator bulbs and the result is brilliant. What a change to the front end.
A pic will follow once the snow has stopped Colin

After painting the middle part of the d4 grille silver I am liking it now. Next up is new silver (not chrome) lettering for the bonnet.

Thanks R. It's amazing how a small amount of tinkering can give the car a more modern look.
I was lucky enough to get the d4 modded grille on the car when I bought it, although it was all black and I didn't care for it much.
I always think the prominent orange on the front of the d3 dates it, and now it's gone, the front is transformed.
Give it a go yourself. All that is essential is patience Colin

Short on patience!
And the nerve to pull my lights apart! The only thing I don't like about the D3 is the Irn bru headlights!!Richard
