^ 4 shizzle.


I'm in a toss up. I like the look to an extent, but I want it to last more than six hours.


And supposedly, from what I have sent sellers, they honor their warranty. Except....they told me this in broken Engrish, so I don knrow wa dey say hokay?

I know if you had your way everyone would just shop for lighting from your shop. Thats ok, it's a free country and capatalism rules!
Mcfly, I'm not gonna tell you a third time...... I do not care about any lighting aspect and have not for several years now since lls was sold YEARS AGO. You need to stay current on your info.

No way...The Audi R8 headlights are Bada$$ to the bone!!! Those lights do not even live on the same planet as the R8 headlights.

This is BS, if you don't want people's opinions then don't post.

some people love a cleaner oem look, and some people want the aftermarket accessorized look.


i personally don't like anything to stand out on it's own, i like everything to flow together, those headlights jump out at you like they don't belong there as soon as you see them., some people want that "upgraded" notice my headlights look, i'd prefer some stock oem ones.

i'm not dissing anyone who puts them on a SC, hey we cant all have the same taste, i'm just saying along with a few others that i don't like them.


like you said it's a free country, do as you please, don't get mad when EVERYONE doesn't like it.

just cause a few of us like a more simple look doesn't mean a car has to meet "our" standards man.

plenty hot cars on here that have mods i never would have considered until i seen it, ebay headlights ain't one of them..

The high beam units in black don't look so bad, the headlights are putrid though, chrome makes them worse because (for me) I can see all the details (urgh).

I'd much rather have a set of OEM headlights with the area directly in front of the projector delined.

sorry for the wait everyone- when I stopped by the shop friday, the car was still in the paint booth, so I couldn't put them on yet. another day or so!

I am curious as to how the whole set looks like on an SC also. Personally, it's not my style because I am into OEM looking products...but these aren't as bad as some of the sets I've seen for other cars.

oh yeah - people have asked why its taking so long sorry.

the car's getting the AC kit installed, with some mods. then, it's off to get test fitted with an M90 s/c.

but i'll have it back this week w/ the cosmetic stuff done.

^ They look pretty decent on a black car, to be honest.

I guess we are all waiting to see how the high beams turn out.
