Stock headlights the best . Dont bother with projectors. unless you have money to do HID conversion.
Just take apart stock headlights and paint them. I did mine and looked nice.

my brother had projectors for his 00 civic ex and they sucked. i was gonna get them because they looked nice but i got some Ion Blue coated headlights (as seen in my sig) because they are the same design as the stock ones...use the same bulbs, etc. they are illegal for road useage...but no tickets/warnings yet.

1. The light output of the TYC projectors aren't even concentrated on the ground. It looks like someone put two flashlights in the headlight casing that aim down at the ground.

2. The distance is one 3rd of the stock headlight's distance (if you're using stock bulbs or bulbs that produce more lumens over stock). Put extreme white bulbs in the stock headlights and you pretty much have TYC's distance which is a mere 3-4 yards.

3. TYC's quality is crap. They fog horribly, just like their Altezzas.

Yet another example of fashion over function. Don't they call them "Elegante" or something? Elegance and quality don't mix when it comes to TYC.

Just like APC, you can't spell "crap" without APC, and you can't spell "tacky" without TYC.

If you're looking for a brighter bulb, the Phillips Vision Plus is your best bet.
