Man I love that NAVI set up, i feel bad for you guys in the north that have to deal w/ the snow and stuff. Down here you can wash/detail every weekend of the year. Like black said, dont waste your money on headlights, do them yourself, you can do them in an afternoon! Just use the search feature and type in Black Housing DIY

as far as lowering your car, are you just looking at springs? or would you buy some coilovers?

I hate the snow weather just for the sake of my car. The salt and the dirt is irritating. I clean the car and 2 seconds after its full of salt
I can't wait for summer.

looks sick. you should crack open the headlights and blackbouse. and being as your JDM, haha you should amber the upper corner. it would really make your HID kit look a lot better.
heres a pic of mine as example

Hey , thanks man...Im lowering her on tein S-tech's.
Im going to end up getting a extra pair of headlights and doing the black housing with the amber corners just like yours! Yours look awsome...for the time being I got amber bulbs and put them in so when there on at night it glows like I do have amber corners..
I bought this car just for a Daily Driver because I have a GTI VR6 but slowly im losing interest on my GTI and really liking my Acura LOL

you dont need to pick up an extra pair. you can get it done in a day. dont waste the money on extra headlights unless your going to retro, or want to keep oems as backup.

i wanted to pick up an extra set to retro. i still might. i would retro the new ones, then retro the old ones with a non HID projector and just sell it with a plug and play kit.

I used to run those blue bulbs also known as XENONS, but they burned out pretty quick in my experience. Ive had my HID's installed since winter, and there awsome...If I were you , id run HID's. My kit is made in germany, I got them from a shop that I get all my volkswagen stuff from.
