Dawg, you got some serious talent. I dunno how you did that...it looks PERFECT. I tried to mess around w/ it a bit in Paint, and...well...I've seen better artwork from preschoolers LOL.

So...what do you think? (not the pic...but of how it looks on my car haha) Thumbs up or thumbs down? I personally think it looks HOT.

EDIT: Oops...I forgot to say THANK YOU! Seriously.

Just to show off your work hehe

It looks like someone squinting their eyes while holding their mouth wide open to me.

LOL well it looks like that either way from that angle...the pic's taken from very close to the ground. I'm sure it would look a lot better from a slightly higher angle. Besides, even w/ a FMIC, it's still someone squinting w/ a mouth full of teeth open lol

I like that light kit, but isn't it a rediculous price, $1900?

I like the kit. It's rare and different, but I couldn't justify spending 1/2 - 2/3 a single turbo upgrade on a light kit.

LOL why is it that all of a sudden, everyone on the forum is evaluating prices in reference to how much a turbo kit costs? lol

In reference to their price, they come w/ HIDs, which isn't THAT overpriced, considering most headlight kits run $800 - $1500, some w/ and some w/o HIDs.

HIDs are included? If so that helps with the price at least.

LOL I didn't see anyone else referencing turbo kits Oops!

It doesn't specify on JT's site, but Chuck says this on his website: "The R Magic headlight kit comes with HID low beam and PIAA high beam."

LOL I didn't see anyone else referencing turbo kits Oops!
I dunno...the past couple of threads I've seen anything about costly mods, I keep on seeing "why would you pay X amount when you could get a single turbo kit for XX amount?" lol

Honestly, the Knightsports were my 1st choice, but apparently word on the street is the lighting of them is worse than stock. I know Chuck was working on a replica w/ HIDs and projectors, but apparently due to size constraints it's gonna take too much time, and he's mad buzy, so it might be quite a while before they're finished. So this is my immediate next choice (I personally hate all the other sleek headlight kits).

BTW...can ya post some pics of your KS lights? I LOVE 'em

Your in the same boat as me for taste. As for the lighting of the knightsports, yes its true it doesnt have the lighting of HID, but in all honesty headlights serve no purpose to ME any way except for legal purpose. I drive my car in the city only, no latenight backroads where dear etc jump out at ya. thus the street lights serve more then enough light for me as it is. Really when driving on the main streets can you see your headlights overpower the street lights on the pavement? I love the look of the pop ups and the dual beam so that is why i bought it, because like you i hate the look of sleek lights.

Here are the pix you asked, sorry about the qualtiy as i didnt know how to take night shots....

Mazdabation, NICE! Thanks for the pics man.

Headlights are CRUICAL for me, cuz most of the areas I drive thru do NOT have streetlights. Plus, even the ones that do, I need the headlights to ensure I don't hit any stupid potholes and what not. Oh and deer are DEF. an issue of concern around here. So good headlights are a necessity.
