New R-Magic SleekLight

Does anyone know ANYTHING about this kit: Does it have a plug in harness or do you have to slice wires? Do you have to cut the frame or is it a plug and play?
Thanks.

In my opinion, thats the first sleek light kit I have ever liked.


I would really like to see how it looked from a more "pulled-back" shot of the whole car.

HOLY CRAP!!! That is hands down the best looking sleek light kit I have seen...really makes the car look lean and mean!

If that becomes available I'll be selling my C-west lights.

Any of you import vendors got the skinny on these?

I guess I am the only one that doesn't like it....

With it only taking up half the popup assembly, it looks like it was made at home. If they could find something to do with the rest of the headlight cover it would be better imo.

I like it cause it looks "sleeker". The Cwest and RE kits all seem draw too much attention to their lights. You look at the car and immediately you see light conversion. This is little more subtle. Just me though.

damn, those are sexy as hell. Wish I had the cash to toss up for those. I'll bet there probally 1,200-1,500 like all the other sleek light kits.

They're around that price . . . . I guess i like the fact you can bearly tell they're there. All the other kits are like *BAM* and stick out like a sore thumb.

It would look nicer if they could mold the rest of the headlight to the body, in order to make it look stock. With the way the hood is shaped around the original headlights, and the way the lines stick out, its not a very impressive mod IMO...but initial impressions may change with time.

I think it looks strange. The light combination would look much better in a sleepy type pop-up in my opinion..

If you molded it into the body...how would you change the bulbs when they burnt out??

a closer look, the yellow car if you notice the right headlight has a huge gap near the fender. The white car is painted all kind of busy riced out effects to mask the gaps. Please take me off the group buy, thanks.

The bulbs would be removed from the back, like on most vehicles. I'm talking about the light being molded to the fender.

I think they look very nice, but that's way too high priced to be practical for most people.
