i put them on the car earlier today and im loving the way they look...
and now i have double high beams for blinding people. j/k lol but the highs are great and super bright. i went with 5000k bulbs and switched my fogs to 5000k also. i used 4 wire taps to tap the solenoids into the high beams.. it was really very easy...

Very Nice!

Congrats. They look really good!

Now maybe I missed the picture, but would you happen to have any pictures of the cutoff pattern up against a wall or something at night?

Thanks for posting this.

Very nice, really updates the look of the car. I just have a few questions
1. Has your hood ever been repainted?
2. How do you get away with those corner lights?
3.Whats with the windshield wipers? Seems a bit civic-ish to me. But if they make you happy, thats the main thing

^^ You can see they used a cheaper or less clearcoat than the oem on the fender.

Your wipers are in 'winter mode' btw... push down on them and they tuck under the hood so its more streamlined. THey are made this way for winter so its easier to pop them up and not let them develop ice.
