egay projectors, yay or nay

[vorin]

I'm planning on being creative. i've been looking at many car's blackhoused headlights (oem and diy) to decide how i want to do it.

While i like what goldnknight22 did with his, i'm going to take a slightly different route. I like using other granny gold cars as a jumping-off point.

some people have black housing with orange "reflectors" on the corner lights. i think it's nice. but i don't think i can pull off that look with white housing. good luck with whatever route your going with though.

um. i thought we were talking about headlamp housings here. if you read the thread, you'd understand that i'm currently running an HID kit in OEM housings, but i want to reduce glare and get a decent cutoff, something i know can be best achieved with a retrofit.
The question i asked was about the look. if the look was widely accepted, i prob. would have ordered some h3 hid bulbs to connect to my ballasts, and installed the egay projectors while i was fiddling with my oems.

but since the answer echoes of disapproval, i've already baked them and pulled the lenses off. Soon, i'll sand the lens smooth and paint the chrome black, so that i know what im doing once i remove my bumper and begin working on my oems.


but thanks everyone for your votes. you've helped me avoid this bit of rice. what would i do without you?

if only...
you are one of my go-to examples of how to modify my car.

but the idea that i'm playing with right now is something i haven't seen anyone do yet, and i think it will look really nice.
