I seen that they made smoked version projectors. Do you guys think they would look good on my car or should I just keep my orginal smoked headlights?

I dont recall you asking for modification advice before, why start now?
Not being a jerk or anything. It's just you seem to do whatever you like, why change?

I been noticing everytime I do something to the car every 202 owner I come around to they tend to say something negative like your car is to ricey. So, this time I'll ask first. Maybe I'll get more appreciated around the 202 scene if I ask first.

I hear ya. I dont think projectors would look that great on the car. I keep picturing the vw/ford focus painted projector and housing. It will take away the shape of the light. I say go for OEM Xenons.
Just remember do what you like, forget everyone else.

I say just do what you like. It is your car and your money you're putting into it. Btw, got any side pics of your car, I want to see how low it is.

it's a good thing too, I would've had something to say about the rest of it. That being withheld, would the inner projectors work with your eyebrows? I have a feeling it would either restrict the cast or prevent others from seeing that they're projectors, which, let's face it, is probably what they're for anyway.

i think projectors look good on 202s but i havent seen them smoked but i think they would look good especially since you got on that nice dark paint

I think they'll look good, but I also think it looks good already.
I personally don't like the eyebrows though. I definitely recommend you take them off especially if you're going to put the projectors.
Nice car!

I modified the latch so it could fit to the hood because underneather the hood was poorly made.. Also I took the hood shocks off because the hood would not close because of the strong pressure. You would need 2 peolpe to close the hood by pushing it from the rear of the hood and not pulling down from the front. My first one I had I cracked it and almost folded it because I was forcing it down by myself from the front. The hood is too light for the shocks. Plus when the hood was close with the shocks and locked . It would bow the hood and it would not match the height of the fenders. Since the shocks been off. It is alot better now. the only thing is I have to bring the hood to the 90 degree position and lock the hinges to hold it up.

Jstrat has some nice projector lights and i really liked the way they looked on the 202...in my opinion there is nothing ricey about projector lights...or eyebrows..my only wish was to projector lights with 2 projectors for the high AND low beam.....love the CF hood by the way

i always liked the idea of a projector beam lens for the c class because with an hid kit the light is very attractive at night. it's very sharp.. like bmw and audi... anyway.. the aftermarket projector lamp shown is nice, however the projector low beam is toward the inner part of the housing. i wish they would have made it by placing the projector lens on the outer part of the lamp.

Just so you know, that projector is wired to the fog lamp, its not the low beam, I thought that to when i got them, but its not that way. They still look good, but just and FYI

I think that you will figure everything out, you are a Do-it-yourself guy and I say go for the smoked pjs no question and also tint your signals. but first you might want to read this...
