Headlights just came in from Germany so I had to snap a few quick pics. They really transform the front end.

I did do a slight mod to them, i painted the turn bulbs silver with silver engine paint from autozone. they still glow up almost 100% because i put a very very light coat on them.

nice man, finally some people are jumping on the euro headlight band wagon

were the headlights plug-n-play as the tail lights? been really looking to get these, but have been gun shy. They look great!

I didn't get the adaptive lights so they throw a light still but I am going to be coding out the adaptive part after I get a cable.

Could you post more pics fo the blckline tail lights?? Im still not sure if I should go with these or the regular lci ones... I dont want the car to look like i just put some lamin-x on the tail lights, since i dont like the "murdered" look.

In some pictures they look very dark, and in others like yours, they look very good.

phrenetiK · 07-04-2012, 08:15 PM

I'll try to snap some for you...but they're beautiful, I'd for sure go with them. I'd honestly like maybe just a tiny tiny bit darker overall, but how they come is still great.

andrey_gta · 07-04-2012, 09:05 PM

Beautiful, can you add details where you sourced the LCI headlights?

They look perfect! Nice ride.

Looks really good man. What kind of drop are you on? Any rubbing issues?

phrenetiK · 07-05-2012, 09:45 AM

St coilovers. they're pretty soft so i rub on big bumps with 2 or more people in the car even though my fenders are rolled and slightly pulled in the rear.

I'm probably gonna change out the springs for stiffer ones eventually.

I have the dynamic headlights and they were plug and play with no issues. If you want the led eye brow then you have to wire it. I ended up wiring the eye brow but then unplugged them because i didn't like the look of it. Looks meaner with just the angel eyes on
