Can someone ID my headlight kit?

I was told it is a custom kit....it came with the car. I don't know if it is completely custom work or a modified version of an existing product.

Oh nd btw I think the company that makes those is called like Knightsport or something. It starts with a K and is pretty pricey. The hood, wheels, headlights, and front bumper I want. They're all custom. (your bumper is a Stock S5 cept it has no FTP lenses so if someone posts saying "his bumper isn't custom" his FTPs are smoothed over)

I dunno if thats the Knightsports kit. The Knightsport kit looks like it has the headlights clear the bumper more. This looks more like a custom job.

Can you take a pic of the headlights up while they are off?

Kickass car.

Your drivers side headlights look a bit lower than the passenger side too.

I thought so at first too but if you look at the headon pic, it isn't really off center and it's wider. I know that if you look at a TII hood head on, the driver's side of the scoop lines up with the driver's side windsheild nozzle and the passenger side is about 2.5 to 3 inches off. This is custom everyhting.

Seven Stock is the worlds largest gathering of Rotary Powered Vehicles...

V8 engines are not rotary, therefore not allowed in. They could park next door or in any of the other lots. Just not on the Mazda R&D lot.

oh sorry I thought you just said stock hood and in my head I assumed you mean TII because of ascoop in the first place, and come to think of it all verts were N/As so ha........ my bad I just misread there. I like the hood design but I don't like how it's a nonfunctional scoop.

It is functional...So the hood can clear the intake.

haha, i'm pretty sure that the N/A hood underneath is still solid. Maybe cut to allow air to the carbuerrator but most likely not functional. I think this V8 is carbuerrated I'm too lazy to go back and look at his small avitar.

edit:I looked, no carb
