Default traded my headlights

okay, so you guys already know that i've cleared my headlights. i went to a store to get some hyper white corner bulbs and this guy that has an es also wanted me to do his corners also.
well, we ended up trading.
i'm gonna clear his and then trade back.
so now, i got a 95es with 93 headlights. i think they look better cause they don't have those lines that go through it.

just thought it would be kool to tell you guys.

I personally like the ones with the lines through them.. They are also somewhat darker inside, makes it look sporty like the Type R headlights..

92-94 headlight housings are crystal clear and have no lines.
95-96 headlight housings are slightly "smoked" and have three horizontal lines.

->look at my sig for '95-'96...notice the contrast between the turn signal/headlight area

->look at egainer's sig for '92-'94, he has a monotone chrome housing. i like his better.

personally, i feel on lighter cars the 92-94 looks best. on darker cars the 95-96 style smoke looks best.

Default ...

What's up with those 3 lines??
Do they even do anything?? I personally think the ones without the lines look much better... but then again the smoked look is also good... so hard to decide...
