Dont waste your money for the projectors right now, prices will go down. I am watching prices for those projectors and they have gone about $20.00 down in last 3 weeks.

I would just wait little longer, wouldnt sell performance mods for the looks.

thanks for the heads up on the price drop. i'm selling the cai cause i'm going short ram

definitely should never sacrifice performance for looks in my opinion, but i hate sweating bulletes everytime i drive with the cai in snow and puddles. plus nice way to get those projectors cause they look great

Nice choice about the Short arm. Are you gonna get the AIR DUCT on the hood or just leave it the way it is?

i think for now i'm going to leave it the way it is and see how much performance suffers cai vs short ram. i may modify the stock intake to run some more air to the short ram filter if the short ram isn't cutting it. the hood duct is an interesting idea though; i may consider it if i can find a way to make it look good on an 04. do you think these projectors are going to look good with the stock tails though? they should look awesome with your black paint

Projectors will look perfect on our cars. Here are some sample pics:

Will look just fine.

Also dont even think of changing your tail lights.....people are crazy for ES tails, specially ralliart guys. Ralliart got the crome altezza tails so no one likes them so people always look for ES tails.

Might wanna use black tint and black them out, not sure how they will look on your car depending on the color of the car.

Not many ppl buying them yet that's why they have to lower the price to get sales, but might be after a few months later, they won't be available at all since they didn't get any sale as they expected so they might stop selling after they sold whatever they have left! Just like the 02-03 cedia headlight, the price were high then lower & lower & now it's even gone, no more listed on ebay for a few months already!
