    Wink pics of my new lights

    OK guys here are the PICS of my new lights. I had to do a couple of modifications to make them fit. one I had to cut the deflector because my hid bulb was hitting the deflector. Then I had to drill a hole on the bottom of head lights to run the wires for the hid and then I spliced and tapped into the fog light and headlight.
    here are the lights.


    this is were i had to do a lilbit of a modification.

    :werd: ...gives it an updated look

    off topic: how big is the lip on the front wheels
    I can not lose, because even in defeat there is a valuable lesson learned so it evens it up for me

    Man! What the hell did you use on your paint? Its so shiny everytime

    What HID brand did you use? Post a night pic.
    I've gotta to get me one of those when I save enough money.

    Next mod suggestion: Get a clear foglight to match

    hmm that is true, why is your car so shiny all the time? especially being black, he, i vote your car as the cleanest 202 here, you either spend tons of time cleaning it, or shell out the cash to get it detailed every week

    Do you still have the seller who sold you the lights. I'm interested in the clear corners. I've looked everywhere on ebay and can't find those clear corners anywhere. I could be mistaken, but they look nothing like the clear corners that I got off of ebay. If you could post a link. Thanks
