Smoked vs. Clear?
Smoked vs. Clear?
I'm debating what to do (If anything) to the front of my car. I could get these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/97-98...spagenameZWDVW and leave my headlights as is. I plan on getting a 4300k H.I.D. kit also.
My other option would be to pick these up with some smoked corner lenses and HIDs

um, you really don't need to spend $300 to make your headlights look like that, just blackhouse them. Otherwise I would say clear cuz it matches your stock headlights. The smoked only look good when the tops match it at least you're on the right track

The blackhousing on the JDM is good but I hate the lines on the corner. I think there is a photoshoped image on here and it didn't look too bad. Just blackhouse yourself. crap load cheaper and not really that hard.

or get in contact with blackack (chris) hes in pa also. maybe he can give u some tips.
either way. good luck
well to be quite honest with you, those headlights on ebay look kinda cheesy. i mean theyve got the corner light all painted with those 3 stripes and it looks wierd. for your car i would just get the clear bumper lights, keep the the headlight housing that you have now, get your HID kit and then amber bulbs.
not to mention for that price you can get something ten times cooler for your car

I want to try and keep the car as clean as possible and not overdo anything but still mod a little here and there.
since ur headlights are in prime condition i wudnt bother buying those ebay ones if anything u can black the housings ur self for less money the clear corner lights wud look nice

I masked off the center circle with tape and painted it chrome and then clear coat. Place the A back on and there you have it.
