Headlights

I need some opinions. Just got an 04 SSM TL. What custom headlights do you think look the best with the silver?

To elaborate on Tyler's post, what he is looking for is the theme you are taking with your car. Obviously it is stock right now, but what else do you plan on doing? Before you start buying parts, try to figure out the direction your car is taking as a whole.

For instance, 06TL4life (sp?) has an SSM with real dark headlights, but it is slammed on white wheels. The headlights compliment everything else he has done. They probably would look out of place on a stock car.

Could be just my but I would start with a spec kit or a drop before doing heads and tails.

I would look at the custom headlights thread people do and figure out what you like and go from there. I like subtle stuff so you wont see me adding halos or blacking out the whole light. Im actually about to tear them open this weekend to smoke the chrome bezels like CTR headlights.

I really like it all blacked out! Do you have CF inserts or no?

Luke, you can check out my headlights in My Garage. You can get to it by clicking on the name of my car at the top of my signature.



While you're at it, be sure to join our Silver TL Social Group from the link below my signature.

Nope, just all gloss and flat black.
