Default My Black Friday score

While other people were at the stores on black Friday looking for deals, I was patiently waiting for the postman to deliver these........my set of jdm Nissan Cima headlights with the gatling lens straight from Japan. But the retrofit would have to wait since I don't have an extra set of 2gs headlight housing. I'm also having second thoughts about doing the retrofit.

Why are you having second thoughts on the retrofit?

I just don't know if I have the time or the drive to do the retrofit.

just do it! i finished mine not too long ago and it was worth it, the feeling of self accomplishment every time you fire them up is worth it if you've never taken on a project like this.. also, If you stay around the bay area i'd even be willing to help you out..

Why did you decide to get these from Japan instead of local? The beam angle is gonna be blinding oncoming traffic.
