fitment is near perfect!!! pricing just depends if ur gonna do it urself or have someone do it for ya

this is the best mod yet for my car!!!

especially wen u have a black car like mine

thanx for the compliment dan

Ya know, I have this odd feeling it will look kinda silly on a silver or white or even a CYM FD

This would probably be "ricey", but what if you used a silver reflection tint on a silver FD with sleek lights?

I don't think black headlight covers would look good on a silver one. Semi-tinted lights would look decent though I think.

Looks good man

Maybe get some of the 93 upgraded turnlights that Rx7store sells to make your front bumper all blacked out?

What about the smoked lenses that RE-Amemiya made? Did you look into those at all?

I see you had the clear ones.

I like 'em...but my real question is this...why do I keep hearing about ppl's headlight covers and even entire headlights flying off??

I'm not trying to jinx myself, but I *regularly* see 100mph+...and my headlights seem pretty damn solid. Am I missing something here? Should I be worried?
