Apparently, lighting really sux...that's too bad.

C-west lights suck pretty bad too. I have them and the beam is bright, just doesn't shoot very far.

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

Sounds like everything for our FD right?

I agree on the molding 100% I saw them in person they are nice, but they need to be molded IMHO

Those things are currently 178000 JPY
, roughly $1700 + shipping (they're HID too)
I'm too lazy to use the babelfish translator so if anyone wants to find out more...

Edit: They also seem to have prefabbed stuff for the front mouth and both side vents so that air doesnt get away and go streight to the i/c, rad, oil cooler(s), . nice (scroll down for that)

Nice light kit. Especially since its different. I still like the Rotary Extreme sleek light kit the best.

How would the light pattern be? I think that's the most important part. Does anyone have pics of that? C West uses little non DOT approved fog lights

They say it's HID so the lighting shouldn't be that bad; that's just what i think . . . i haven't actually seen the light pattern though.

Well, seeing as it R-Magic's project car, would you be surprised if I told you that it is an R-Magic hood? Along with the R-Magic headlight kit and R-Magic body kit?

Seeing as how it was made for FDs, no. Unless you pay 1700 to buy the FD kit then pay another 2000+ to get a body shop to customize your bumper, hood, headlight supports, and the light kit to fit your FC.

RE Amemiya makes a damn great front bumper/light kit combo for the FC that is a much cleaner install.

Are you too lazy to scroll up the page??? Both of those have been answered.

Sorry for being so rude but come on... it takes less time to scroll up the page and look than it does to actually make a damn post on this forum.

Wow, that is worse than any other sleek light kit I have ever seen. That looks like youd get more lighting if you held a flashlight out the window and shined it at the road. Why would someone trade stock lighting, for crap lighting. As well as looks, the pop ups look FANTASTIC when they are down, and alright when they are up. Sleek lights look alright. So youre trading lighting + FANTASTIC + alright for crap light + alright. Not a very good trade off.
