Oss designs headlight?

I'm ready to buy some new headlight, I seen OSS page and they have some sick headlights. but!

Before I put my order in, is there any other company that are better than OSS? or do you guys have anything to say before I buy OSS.

OSS work is not good at all. I know someone just order those x vision light, debris inside the headlight and the sealant is horrible.

I've also heard their communication is pretty bad along with unknown timeline for the work...definitely gets a lot of instagram hits but not worth it for that low quality.

I've seen ONeighty on FB but no idea on the quality.

Personally I'd be interested in finding something quality down in SoCal for a blackout on my M2C Adaptive LED Assembly. If anyone knows please reply/PM.

I recommend oneighty, they do much better work. I had bayoptiks worked on my xenon headlight, they messed up two pair and another dudes xenon as well.

I checked their online site and they only have a blackout option.

That work is awful. The sealant is all over the case - not exactly factory looking

I did mine myself sourced the lights myself as well and the job is significantly better than that and only a fraction of the cost!

if anyone is opening your headlight...expect problems period...obvs not to the extreme above. but any type of serious lighting mod is typically a headache. Ill look to buy a used pair instead of hacking my own

I might as well go with Oneighty, I got a higher price than OSS but I think their quality will be better.

Damn, that is unacceptable. I mod E9X headlights, and I would never allow for debris in the light. I use compressed air and a vacuum to prevent this.

I used OSS back in the day, for my e90 m3 - the work he did then was good, it held up and is still working today.

On my m4 i have a OneEighty blackout headlight, and the work is clean.

Based on the comments above, its hard to say whether OSS is still good or not, ,as i havent dealt or seen any of their new stuff. But i would recommend OneEighty, i have been following their work n Instagram, and it seems like the results are good. Myself and a buddy, both had headlights done with them.

I'm not sure if OSS Design is in business anymore but I'm going with your recommendation to Oneighty, hopefully it's something they can do 👍🏼
