never understood why light mods were so cool..

i mean i could understand adding a halo or something, or painting the insides black..
but whats so cool about lens's and other stuff like that?. im sure they will look nice, but whats the point since most people just get flicked off with hids because there so bright..

your not the first ive seen do this.. just figured i would ask wh your changing them.

Plus projectors are alot nicer overall than reflector type housings. The light is actually AIMED and has a cut-off unlike the reflector type. These lights will look factory when done.
To the OP: Good job and the should look awesome when finished

Projectors don't glare like aftermarket HID's. There's a light cutoff. When you see someone with retrofits, they look like OEM projectors, like audi, mercedes, bmw, lexus, and so on.


As for eyeku, I bet that conversion is madd $$. But without a doubt you'll be pleased. S2k projectors are siickkk!

I've been wanting to do this because of the fact that cedia housing sucks and i cant see **** at night =/ .
But i was reading that the Fx35 infiniti has really good projectors . I would just stick a 35w 6k or 8k kit in there and be good

why would this be stupid? They are far more functional than angel eyes... what purpose does a ring around lights serve? kinda stupid comment if you ask me. They won't blind people if you situate them correctly.

35w yes, 6-8k no no no not for me. im just gonna run 4300k.
the fx35 is the best bi conversion but they are pricey as well, its all taste and what you wanna spend.

TSX are cool and have a ton of mod you can do with them

why is what stupid? alot of people do paint there headlights, and add angel eyes and halo's because it looks cool. I was asking why he was switching to the s2k projectors because it seemed like a waist of time to me. maybe you should learn to read, im asking why is it so cool/why is he doing it i asked the question twice and said i didnt understand why.. 4 other people answered the question, and i understand why now that he likes it.. glad your English reading skills are at the elementary skill level still.

my question was answered by others before you desided to chime in, you should keep reading the thread if you going to comment on other peoples posts. Thank you AhFuJai, adamkean, and jRox for explaining.

^^easy easy now.

but the reason why i went with the projectors vs ur basic hid kit, i wanted to use all of it potential and get way better output then stock and aftermarket hid kits. i dont like halos or angle/demon eyes. also i did contemplate painting the housing but a lil miss communication on my part. the look is OEM "like" with far better output then the mitsubishi projectors and halogen headlamps.
