Pretty sure this counts!

$150 - LED ORB Kit

eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices

Makes me want to re-open my headlights and try this lol. Could be good for those of us who weren't scared to open up the headlights and paint.

I see they drop 180's name too

For $150 you could do the dual projector look and go quad angel eyes. Probably still have money left over.

Sent from my iPizzle using magic and new fangled science stuff.

Some of these may have been mentioned but each of these is <$200 by itself:
-Replace your differential fluid to RedLine 75W90
-Replace tranny fluid = smoother shifts
-Buy either a front or a rear aftermarket sway bar. (or both for just a little more)
-SS brake lines + upgrade fluid
-SS clutch line + upgrade fluid
-High performance Brake Pads
-Shift knob
-Clutch helper spring sold on these forums
-Buy a nice detailing kit to preserve your car
-oil pressure guage (for those with an oil cooler this is important)
-Spacers

That just looks so flat out bad-azz! I also really like the fang treatment with the thin strip of pearl white at the bottom!

Really want to do this to my z, but I doubt I could. 180 custom is too expensive. But 30 bucks for dual halo on each light and paint my housing satin black... I wish. That looks so sick!

This is a great addition to the rear, well I liked it on my Acura I had before I got my Z. with " bright white " it will match the LED license plate upgrade and look like a stock option and under $200

Oh that's quite nice! I'd like to see some of the colors other than the yellow.

Yeah, Im not accustomed to uploading pics, I was going to show a example of the one on my Acura, but couldnt figure it out...I dont remember how, anyhow there is also a album located here and actually one of my pics is in there lol

[happytheman]

Oh you mean this one!

It looks good, but perhaps a teensy bit rice.

I can't help it, but any page that sports this at the top, front and center...gets my full attention!

Mine is actually a dark gray with white, similar though. I know how it can look a little rice, but I think the white is suttle and gives it a almost stock look, or red if you wire it for the brake light where it only lights up when braking....colors like green, blue, yellow are a bit more ricey. The white matches the license plate upgrade and its not for everyone, but does look kinda nice

[happytheman]

Yes, I think if the white is subtle..it can certainly look nice against the white LED of the license plate lighting.

[MyZ4U2C]

This thread was a excellent idea btw, I wont be able to afford much just getting my Z, so looking through here getting some little mods here and there to tide me over will be great! repped!

the spoiler is great, ur looking at the eyes right? lol, and this mod is something that looks a lot better in person than in pics, its really hard to justify the lighting / look in a pic
