I don't think anyone actually stocks nova angel eyes.

From what I remember there was a guy knocking some up at home and selling them on ebay. I'm not sure if that's still happening.

The headlights are sealed.. hence if you crack one you have to replace the whole unit. Therefore to customise with a angel eye ring you need to break the seal. TBH I can't really see that being a good thing.

Obviously it's up to you but personally I think they look crap.
If you want angel eye headlights then graft some proper bmw lights on.

...or make a quad light panel and fit or make some rings for that.

Problem with making them from standard lights is the ring will reflect back into the lamp and illuminate the whole lamp; and the light will be refracted by the grading on the lense.

yea im not after them crappy chrome looking ones,
and i was going to graft some polo headlights in to do it, but
decided it was too much hasle,
just after the standard looking lights with angel rings inside really,
so they dont look too chavy

To be honist if you want angel eyes use mk 5 polo lights. There about as close as you will get to nova lights. if not nova lights look good enough standard why change them. And heres a link of what the polo lights look like

They only do them for a Mk1, and looks like they use the standard lense:

...which, IMO, looks absolutely awful!!
