Lightbulb Show me pics of your lazy eyed FC's!!

If you wouldn't mind. Caught in between doing it and not, if anyone has a stock s5 (turbo II) bumper that would be great. I've seen lots with AM bumpers and it looks cool, but with stock bumpers is what I'm unsure about really.

Thanks

I don't really care what anyone says... it can look good on certain FCs. In my case I have TSX HID retros so it doesn't kill my light output at all.

i think those are too high . they gotta be low





Only looks good tho when car has other visual mods, looks horrible on a stock car.
Used to do it on my 240sx, it really looks better on that car than it does on fc imo, the design of the headlight covers goes past the hood http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._6959215_n.jpg

But i did try it on the FC a couple years back, wasnt too crazy about it

Let's see..
Here's a few pictures of good, working headlight assemblies.

Anything less than properly working headlights, and everyone will just ask what's wrong with them. B)

Now either you can't read the thread title or you find yourself highly amusing. I'm going with the latter, however thanks for your input

Hypertek - looks better lower, i think your right.

Thanks, yeah I like them high with stock body. With a kit it looks more aggressive low... maybe not this low, but still looks okay.

I disagree. When its too low it makes it look like the headlight covers are not aliened properly (like the white one ^) I think you need to be able to see a little headlight, but in all honesty I think it looks stupid on 99% of cars in general. I've always been a fan of the "clean" look, I don't even like to open my sun roof because it breaks up the body lines lol.

Glad you took it the right way. ^_^

My thinking was, since you said "Caught in between doing it and not", that I should to push you towards the not - hence pictures of how nice the cars look without sleepy-eyes.

my old fc =[


sleepy

you can also use the gap, from the sleepy eyed position, to suck in cold air into the engine bay. there is about a half inch gap if you remove the rubber molding on the hood.

Pull the retractor fuse. Turn headlight raise switch. Put retractor fuse in momentary to the desired height.

Decide for yourself if you like it...

It takes longer to start a thread than it would to do this.
