Hi Matt, you mean like this?



It is indeed a kit manufactured by Tilly and is called the Detroit kit. It is the most common of the FE "Flash kits" because it was, arguably, the best looking. Whilst not common it's not rare either.

They can be purchased around $500 for a complete secondhand kit, more for a NOS one. Be warned though, if you can't do this yourself, by the time you get all the small dents knocked out and the pieces polished it could owe you well over $1000 before you install it, as there are 20 pieces in the kit. Fitting requires great care to ensure the flash is straight, I've seen them end up in odd angles on the rear quarter at the tail lights when they haven't been aligned properly.

Cheers
John

hey guys,
wondering if anyone out there could help me out with a few questions. Was wondering how rare the dealer flash chrome on a fe is? same as another members car siggys mild fe! i have only seen his with this style of chrome and was wondering if it was indeed rare and what a complete set of chrome to complete this look would be worth?
i think this style of chrome was also called detroit tilles kit!

any info on this would be greatly appreciated...

Matt
