Go oem dnt waste ur money for thst price save anothe 50 n get 1 pcs again
What he said. Stick to OEM on headlights
Those would look ok on your ride, especially if they’re temp until you can find someone on here selling the light you need. I swear, if shit isn’t JDM on your car everyone on this forum is a hater. Who said he even has his OEM lights anymore considering they’re a bitch to take out.
dont get 'em…not because they’re cheap ebay brand(well…don’t get them because they’re cheap ebay brand). also, look at that tint on the lens…that is sure to knock off a good 25%-30% light output…it’s bad enough ebay headlights give terrible lighting, but to tint the lens.

No one said it had to JDM, but OEM quality can’t be beaten. Sure, you can go ahead and buy them, but like everyone else said 1.) They are egay, so the light output isn’t going to be great already and 2.) They are tinted which makes them worse. They might look ok but I’d take brighter headlights over better looking headlights any day.
And if you think taking out headlights is hard, good god…

lmao its justa pain if the bottom brackets are on but still not hard at all go oem if u can dnt waste ur money on that crap if u want ill sell u my oem ones for 120
I got my headlights for $100 shipped… from CANADA, haha. Though one did have a small crack. But still, it’s not like it would leak or anything. You could hardly even tell it was there.
I do agree with integrac, lots of people on this site seems so txt book! like it has to be only one way! anyways i bought the headlights anyway and would like to share the outcome with you guys. I didnt get the tinted hl instead i got the black housing. it seems cheap but it matches my car pretty well. I didnt like how it looked at first but it started to grow on me… What do you guys think?
They look pretty good hows the brightness on em? Not my style but of all the ebay one i like those most
body panel fitment seems a little off. everything seems to be out of line. but, I do like the headlights. i don’t know why some people hate on them. they aren’t THAT bad looking. I think they look pretty classy compared to the other styles of headlights. The scattered light output that I’ve seen is the only thing about them that I don’t really like. The corner light section is a bit different than what I normally care for, too. But the clear lens and front on view of the headlights is quite classy looking. Especially the black housing lights that you got. They almost remind me of the DC JDM headlights, in a way. I’ve seen a few projector retrofits in these lights that looked GREAT and completely eliminated the scattered output. Ever considered looking into that?
yes you are right, the car was in a front end collision by the passenger side and when i got the car back i said the same thing to the body guy. There is no front reinforcement so there was frame and sub frame damage among other damages. jdm bumper support was mangled to shit. There is still a gap between the hood and bumper but he said he will take care of it. i didnt think the headlights was that bad either!
I wasnt aware of the projector retrofits. anybody have pics of that?
Looking good bro.
I’ll see what I can dig up. Been a while since I’ve looked at the thread(s) with pics. As soon as I dig them up, I’ll post 'em up
IMHO some cars can pull them off, some cant…but in general there not the worst aftermarket ebay headlights out there…there is way worse !!!
i just took mine off and put stock headlights back on…but they dont match my car at all, but they look decent on your car
doesn’t look bad at all. i like them!
Here’s how mine looked like with them, and quite honestly I think they look better with them than the JDMs. The JDMs are too damn ‘plain’. I kept both and swap them out when my mood changes.
this isn’t the exact retrofit that I was talking about, but here is one:
spooledu24
spooled is actually using an highly customized E46 bi-xenon projector and high beam setup. said it required a LOT of work to get to look right. The results are clearly stunning, though.
Kuppa’s DA. I think these projectors look AMAZING!
