I used to think square headlights would look okay, but
i don't know what it is,,, the colour of the car or something but that looks like ***. IMO

no...the color has nothing to do with it. they make it look like a capri or something.....very dated and ugly! The car's lines aren't meant for the squareness it takes away the sporty look of the car and makes it look like a gas saving comuter....

I'd like to see someone make a stationary H.I.D kit. I have thought about trying to convert the Brainstorm Miata kit onto my 85'

I thought the brainstorm kit was pretty much a direct installation. i know its for a miata, but they have 7" head lights too.

Looks like crap. Even the sleepy eye conversion just doesnt look right.
