Ooh, C-west? Sorry, i'm still a noob. Trying to learn the difference between the kits. Couldn't tell honestly. I know the difference between Evo sleek kit, RE Ameniya and another, but this one was throwing me off a bit.

Try and find them in person and decide if you like them. To say FD owners are an opinionated bunch is like saying midgets are short. Who cares what anyone else thinks, it is your car and buy the parts you enjoy. I would suggest you see them in person first...there are plenty of people who enjoyed them on their cars.

I'll only put those lights on my car if everything under the hood comes with it.

most people also don't want to admit that after putting effort into something that they do not like the end result, so they force themselves into liking what they created.

i admit i have done the same but inevitably i just rip out what i did and start over, refinement isn't a bad thing.



you're right that everyone has their own tastes, i've even seen some people put integra rear ends onto 7's that i thought was hideous, but to each their own. like putting a 7 shell onto a 4X4 running frame, or putting a 7 on 24" baller wheels. not quite in the same ballpark but most people usually do have similar tastes here and sometimes a little nudge can give a hint that he may not really end up liking the result without modifying the rest of the car around the headlights.

They're not that bad but there's much more aesthetically pleasing options out there.

They are alright at one point I guess. I use to have them at one point , but I just couldn't like that bubble that the cover has, it throws the FD lines out. From front view they look awesome but from The side or even when you're driving specially at night, you can see that freaking bubble. I think I still have some pics of them on my car , ill see if I can find them to show what I mean
