There's quite a few sick ass rides in your tri-state area.

Why'd it take you 3 months to gain access?

Btw, welcome to the boards.

Welcome to the 'zine. You'll never leave, and you'll spend far too much money on this car because of it.

haha your right. this place hands out the mod bug like the black plague. everyone gets bitten. FWIW i wouldnt buy those headlights, reason being your gonna have to take off your bumper to install them anyways so why not save the $200+ and bake your headlights instead its only a few extra steps. real easy too.

Those headlights are ugly as hell, I hate the stripes

Doing it yourself is the only way to go. Plus it gives you better options for the corners than those stupid stripes. Look here for some ideas

And yes you are required to be vaccinated with the mod bug the moment you join this forum

Hey Blackack, where did you get the carbon fiber from? They look custom molded to the inner shape of the headlight. Sorry if I hijacked.

Those aren't projectors, those are headlamps. Are you talking about doing a retrofit?

You can also get them precut from here, this is the kit most of us have and you don't have to worry about cutting it yourself
