Black Painted Headlights and AVS Covers...

So I just finished round one of my headlight project. I got tired of my old Gen 1 Projectors and shitty HID's so I put the painted stockers back in w/ silverstar ultras and added the AVS headlight covers.

The only shitty part is that with the stock headlights, I seem to have more gaps in my bumper even with about an hour of adjusting...

Oh well... Let the hate begin.

why dont u just put hid's in the stock housing? ive had mine for over a year, never been flashed once, and the visibility is amazing.

That's the next step I think... Still debating on whether or not I want to do the whole retro thing...

cover can come off easily for the night if I decide I want to take them off. This pic is shows my headlights on w/ the covers on. I think there will be plenty of light output with the covers on.

And only image I know of was a photoshopped image.

That's what I've heard. I'll most likely only use the covers when at shows. And I have a couple of dings but the majority of that is pollen/dust.

bought them that way. Was tired of the ALL black look. Been digging them in silver probably because it's a change which I like a lot. Things get old to fast to me which I'm sure the silver will too and I will paint it black.

There was a question asked in MY thread and you decide to answer for me although you had absolutely no idea what you were saying. Moronic.

You still have a grudge because of the ROTM thread on g5club. Get over it. We both lost although I beat you.

I have NEVER said anything about you stating your opinion. What I have a problem with is you talking for me. PLease re-read the thread and educate yourself.
