Default Man I Love My New Headlights

man i spent the last 3 days sanding down the lines in my headlights and buffing it out and painting the inside flat black. MAN it looks SOO freakin good too. especially on a black car. i had my girl do a drive by for me while i stood on the side walk and it looked soo much bluer and there was soo much more color change due to the new black surroundings because the light wouldn't bounce off there anymore so it looked bluer instead of white. also the cutoff line was increased and the light lit up the road more because there was no lines in front of the high beam or low beam to block or mess up the light pattern. seriously looks soo sick. i'll get a pic up by this weekend forsure.

That is really cool jmai. You are a *little* obsessed with your headlights, though.

Speaking if lights, has anyone figured out how to get the fogs on with the parking lights yet? (no braggin you guys outside the US) I think it might just be a matter of modifying the turn signal arm where the switch is but someone said it might overload the system with too many amps or something. Reminded me of my last visit to Radio Shack...

It looks like a totally different car. I had no idea it was going to be so noticible. Gives it a more aggressive, newer look. You're going to have to get a bodykit it now for sure.....

In my opinion, it definitely updates the look of the car and makes it look newer. Great idea!
