Finally L-sportline and Projector retro

I finally have my car back. Looks too much like Lexkost's LS. I am so glad to have it back.

It will soon be dropped. I just couldn't wait to post these pics.

List of Mods:

Custom Headlights by Kipod
Body Repairs and total paint job
Monotone
L-sportline Body kit (no spoiler)

Very nice... i really love the look

The only thing I would do differently would paint the housing in chrome, instead of black.

Thanks for posting, brings back great memories of my beautiful 98.

yeah, i had a battle between muffler delete or to take out the resonators.

i was at the Pep Boys today to take a look at those bulbs you were mentioning. but it looks like i have to open the housing to take the shield out.

The cutoff is blury and not as sharp as it could be. We kept the stock fresnel lens with 2 washers in the projector because the main desire was color not sharp cutoff. It still looked great when he drove past me Sat night. Damn those beams are wide.
