Mitsubishi Fto Headlights on a FD

what you guys think this would look like. i am have been lookin for stock headlight housings that would almost fit or look decent on the fd as sleek lights. nothing like the celica conversion or anything. all i can come up with is the nsx sleek lights or the fto headlights.

here is an fto:


here is my bad photoshop on a fd:


what do you guys think it would look like.

Ive had the idea around 2 years ago, bought a set of fto lights and started fitting them, didnt fit what i liked, so I sold them and dumped the idea

Well, there's always the RE-Amemyia ACxxx kits (2 variations) w/Porsche lights

I've seen a version of their kit with updated lights from the Boxster (i think that's where it's from).
I can take a pic of the mag (RE Enthusiast, not sure the vol. #) if you'd like.

Can you say PRAYING MANTIS?

That thing is a God-Awful mess. Stick to stock.

If you want to chop and mold stuff, buy a civic.

Why is re always trying to turn the fd into a porsche. It looks better than one to begin with. Shouldn't it be the other way around.
