While were on the subject of sleek light kits, I've always wanted to know the opinion of other people.... Well is it just me or does the CWest sleek light kit seem alittle too much on the lighting when put with the CWest front bumper? or for that matter any headlight conversion kit with any front bumper that has turn signals and fog lights?... if you guys agree tell me which bumpers you think look good with the conversion kit....

Just an opinion:
it might be a little much.. particularly w/ the '99 signals, but its not bad.

C-west are the ONLY kits that i've seen that look sophisticated and worth anything. Everything else looks REALLY home-brewed.
IMHO the east bear looks realy dorky, unaerodynamic, and dated.

I actually run the stock headlights and bulbs and don't have any real complaints... even tho they're supposed to suck. I'd want sleek lights for weight, and to open up other intake options. Wish i had the resources to develop something thats really good.

actually, IMO, the RE Amemiya Sleek Lights look nice. And the new IPF ones look amazing as well.

I like the C-west kit too, but its not the only sleek kit that is good.

one thing i dont like about the c-west kit, is the hump on the headlight.

They don't make them anymore, they had a problem with one of their part suppliers. Don't know if they ever will make them again.

You'll be lucky if you can find anyplace that has a set laying around.

If they are new, then that's average.
