Headlights: Yay or Nay!

just looks off because you've done nothing else to the car. Get some wheels, black the emblems, diffuser, etc.

Also black out the fangs and i think it will all come together.

put me down for a Yea.

I went through the same thing on my PW car. It looked a bit off to me because everything else on the car was stock at the time. I eventually got black wheels, emblems, and door handles and now I love the look. By the way, I prefer the all black housing instead of color matching the projector surround. Looks mean

I dont like pure black wheels but I recenlty Powder coated my Stock rays and i'm in love. The color is called Thunder Cloud Gray

I think that i will plasti dip the rear diffuser and the emblems

genesis2012 · 01-10-2014, 10:24 AM

^^^

Damn that color looks sweet

If you are taking apart the head light...might as well add Morimoto white led halos as well. Looks so sick driving down the street...downside is that it catches a lot of attention.

Just needs the wheels black and she'll look fine...but get on that ASAP. Just tell people you have your winter wheels on for now....

How is your vison and light projection at night with them darkened? I love the look but my old eyes need to see too.

I'd have to agree with everyone suggesting more dark parts (fangs, vinyl roof, wheels, ect.) what's nice about lighter cars is the contrast pops and turns it into a real neck breaker. However don't go crazy with plasti dip it'll make it look cheap in my opinion. Looks great regardless
