    Carbon Fiber vinyl VS the real thing- Which should I go with?

    -its an imitation that sorta looks like the real thing, but has none of the benefits besides aesthetics-depends on what manufacture you go with. some look ok, some look fake, just ask the company your buying from for samples. -most people say its has an exterior lifespan of about 1 to 2...

    1998 ex Headlights / Taillights? HID's?

    true...but you cannot buy headlamp units that were designed to work with HID's for civics...all of them will say "for show" or "for off road use only." furthermore retrofitting your headlights is also illegal...because it simply is. Its just the law, like i said, don't do the stuff I...

    http://www.ddmtuning.com/Products/Apexcone-Raptor-HID-Kit -35w(55 is too much in my opinion) -H4 -4500K(most light output possible, 5000k is a nice color and still bright, anything higher than that I don't suggest...and you run the possibility of being pulled over by the cops) -Get a HID...

    1998 ex Headlights / Taillights? HID's?

    You hear bad reviews of HIDs because people buy HID kits off ebay(which are hit and miss, I bought one for my motorcycle and it works great) DDM tuning is a great source for good inexpensive HID kits for you car, they have a really good warranty and the best prices and a solid reputation...

    98 civic EX, better late than never.

    OK you all were right, these headlight suck A$$....they do have a nice cutoff line, but it only stays that way for maybe 10ft, then it breaks up and its crappy. the headlights themselves do a very poor job at lighting up the rode. Selling them on CL now (i only paid 40 for em' so I'm not...

    :thumbs up yeah, I was thinking about it since I'm going to spend that money again on Morimoto D2S Hid ballast's and bulbs I should really just save it until summer when I do the Morimoto D2S(or H1) retrofit.

    98 civic EX, better late than never.

    Well I really wanted a projector lens, Im also not a big fan of the stye of these headlights but they will do until I can retrofit. At $40 its not like I'm really out anything, just wanted to see how they look and all that. (its not just the cost of the retrofit either, it the fact that its...

    just looks wise or function as well? Update: So for the longest time I have always heard that Ebay Projector headlights had the worst projectors in them. That they gave off a crapy cutoff and basically were not worth any money. Well I have been searching for some ebay lights because I...
