Flush headlights

I'll start off by mentioning I did a search for "flush headlights" but didn't get a ton of help from that.

I'm just looking for some opinions on aftermarket flush headlight kits. I recently purchased my FD, and one of my headlight motors appears to be burnt out, so instead of buying a new motor, I figured I'd upgrade to flush lights (as I've always liked this look on an FD).

However, I've been searching around and I see there are a number of kits out there with a number of different costs and issues.

I'm not terribly concerned about upgrading to HID lights, I see some kits offer this, but it's not a needed feature for me, I'm perfectly content with regular intensity headlights.

I would *like* to avoid cutting the car as much as possible, this seems to be a selling point advertised on the EVO-R headlights, and this appeals to me, but getting some feedback from anyone who has used this kit would be great.

Cost is not a major issue, I don't plan on throwing away money unnecessarily, however I'm not adverse to paying extra to get a quality product. I don't like to cut corners when it comes to my car.

Thanks in advance for any feedback or tips anyone can provide.

-Geoff

They all look good at 60mph or from 100 feet away, but up close I think they all look like ****.

That's most likely a replica kit:
