True, get a heat gun pry them open and paint them a gunmetal color that would look hot on a white EX, and are those Motegi MR7's?

I'm with fourdoor92, i had single halo projectors it was a bi*ch setting it up you have to ground splice etc etc plus the projectors "glass ball" isn't high quiality material you see on BMW, Benz, Acura, etc.... it's worthless, but there are some good projectors not saying every proejectors suck, but halo projectors are just hassle if you want proejctors go for TYC i heard their good... or just keep ur stock headlights and go HID :thumbs up

Projectors = $100+ depending what you get
HID Kit = $300+ can find good deal on EBay, used or new
i rather save little bit more money and get HID's that's IMO

*EDiT*
I'd just get mugen or Type-R replica lip which i think flares out more.. car looks nice !!

It would be coo if you just painted your stock headlights, but halo projectors make civics look alot different, so its up to you wether to spend the money or not

I wanted to try that out, but the projector headlights have the male connector so i dunno how you going to bake em so you'll have to use heat gun i believe ...
