FC headlight conversion...only $650!!!

WOW....this conversion kit looks sweet.

$650 could help buy performance mods, but still this headlight conversion kit is SWEET. Has anyone else thought about buying this kit or making one similar to it??

i dont hate popups, but this kit makes the FC look so much better.

here's a better pic. I like it and it's a good comprimise as you get the recessed look but you don't spend $2500+ for the front nose, recessed lights, tinted light cover, etc..

I also have about ~200 pictures of bodykits here:

I guess the flash to pass through the glass will be history with that upgrade? I think that it looks good, but I can't change my collector car except for engine and suspension upgrades. I want my RX to look like it did in 1987, no spoilers or stickers just more speed. Belvi what's the deal on the server BIG BOSS MAN?

ok i posted some pictures of them, however they are not completely done. i still have to seal the housing and put a custom piece of plastic over the headlight housing to block off the top half and clear up the bottom. but this is the basic idea. they are on a different post on this forum but theres like 6 pics of them. let me know if you want to see different angles and such.

enjoy
