Saw those a while back, I was gonna ask about them, then I thought....."If the seller doesn't have a mounted pic on their own listing either they never fitted them to a car or they fit like ****"

I dont think the price is THAT bad, have you bought a headlight for a newer car lately and seen the price?
These are low production customs, housings and all.

Natey has a great reason why not to buy from EVO-R. Here is the thread https://www.rx7club.com/bad-fugly-members-185/burned-fd3s777-over-%24400-865973/
$500 for headlights isn't cheap no matter how you try to justify it, especially for crap like those lights.

its always buyer beware, there are issues with all light kits out there, someone makes a replacement light kit for my daily and the previous generation version had quality issues.

Again they aint for me


Compare this headlight to the sniper racing, no matter what to get 2 functioning drop in lights you are spending at least $500
Put together your own kit and buy 4 good projector lights and try make up a housing, then tell me you will sell that kit for $200.

they look pretty cheaply made, if im spending that kind of money i wouldnt want to see screws thru the top of the clear cover, i would spend the money and buy the fc2000 bumper and buy lights for it.

I cant recall anyone with that bumper who has really good lights, get you down the road and do the job, but not great, actually worse then stock.

I would have no problem shelling out the $400 for a good quality set of lights but these are not. You can look at the projectors and see they aren't even aimed right.
