Very nice!

How do you find those lights?
Title: Whoops....i did it again!
Post by: Ed_RX7 on November 08, 2006, 08:21:49 PM
The lights are superb....but i customized them abit by getting angel eyes put on them and...upgrading to a kaxien hid kit......totally useless if they were left standard (IMO)
Title: Whoops....i did it again!
Post by: dreamers on November 08, 2006, 08:32:19 PM
Does the light cover obscure the lights? (hope that makes sense)

Where\'d you get the front nose curiously? I\'ll need one of those!!

Car does look great. Was a bit ....hmmm... dunno after the first mods (c west lights), but the cover on it and the light lips look cool!!!

lol.  How much did the upgrades cost?  I\'ve got the sleek lights.  If im on a road without street lights its rather terrifying!!  So I\'m avoiding it like the plague

The car that got me started on Rex\'s all that time ago.  I must be one of the only people on here who prefer it how it used to look like in the first picture.

Still looks very nice now though and I imagine it looks well impressive in the flesh.

Thanks for the comments guys,
 
Frankie:....Dont worry you will be converted soon.
 
Initial D:....Ben...you know how it goes!!...can\'t help myself.
 
Jono:..Its called obsidian pearl Black and it is a standard colour...Don\'t want any problems when i wanna respray bits....its got gold/green fleck in it so looks bronze in the sun... thats why i got bronze wheels.
 
Allstaruk....think its the angle i took the picture at....And maybe some neg camber to squeeze the 275 tyres in...but level all round.

The pictures dont do this car any justice, it looks awsome:god :god .  

Now, all you got to do is; drive that thing man.....i wana get those lights and you know that i was the one who told you about them..:2Rolleyes :Thumbsup!
Title: Whoops....i did it again!
Post by: Ed_RX7 on November 09, 2006, 05:36:58 PM
Laeeq...what you talking about.....I was following these lights for well over 14 months.....and I can prove it....:spank ...cheeky sod:Thumbs-up
 
The lights cost around £250 delivered...but a word of warning...If you don\'t get a HID kit with it, forget it...You will not see ****!!!!...believe me!and if you get a HID kit get a proper proven one....Like Kaixen:)

Think your right bud....so you can vouch for the light output!!!
 
I waited before i bought for number of reasons....one was buyer feedback on light output.....but been speaking to another chap and he recommended the kaixen kit above any other... then with further research  and the weaker dollar they were purchased.
