those are fucking ugly! the corner light portion looks like shit.

 

[AlmightyBirdman]

Maybe if they would have been released at the time they said I'd have the money, but I don't really right now. I want the black ones though, the light output is amazing and it's so much better than stock output.

A little, but anything is better than stock light output

eh, I'd rather have my shitty stock headlights with HID's then some ricer ass projectors. and this is coming from a guy looking to buy a honda...

I'm hoping that these projectorz will add at least 50 HP. Screw the effort of doing a top swap, I'll just buy these.

 

[Bru]

I'm going to pick up a set but probably won't get the 8000k HIDs, I'll get my own. Don't really care what they look like, and the beam pattern looks really good on these.

Stock capsules are shit, HID or not.

 

[Euro]

ugly

 

[Fish]

Id definatly recommend these. My regal with halogens put out better light then my old GP with HIDs. HIDs on the regal make HIDs on a GP look silly.

I agree the corners could use some redesigning, but if that is the final product, Id suck it up and buy them IMO.

 

[Euro]

I don't have any complaints on my headlights for stock. I could think of many other things to spend $450 on

They are pricey. If we ever goto a meet, Ill let you sit in my car and turn the lights on. I got $5 your initial reaction will be along the lines of holy shit, or damn my lights suck.

Im just saying this is probably THE best lighting mod you can buy for a GP.

 

[Fish]

Also after reading and looking at pics, you will have a separate low and high bulb. That in itself is 10X better combo.

The group buy is only $350 shipped, it's those greedy ricer ebay companies trying to off them for $450-$500. It may even be the same price everywhere once every vedor has a hold of them but I'd dish out $450 to have a concentrated bright beam instead of scatteredlight going all over the fucking place. If you look at the ebay auction for the black headlights though, the color is listed as "JDM Black"...fantastic

 

[Bru]

With HID kit the combo is $450. I really hope they offer a 4300K package and not just the 8000K.

I probably will have that reaction...but eh

 

[AlmightyBirdman]

I'd just order the headlights by themselves and not with the HID kit, one reason being is that John himself stated that the HID kit isn't the greatest, and two if you order your own, how are they going to know. It isn't worth risking having expensive headlights not under warranty when you can just hop on ebay right after you order the headlights and buy your own kit without them knowing.

 

[Euro]

meh...I'll wait til everybody starts selling their black headlights and HID combos

 

[AlmightyBirdman]

I was thinking about doing that too, then I saw the beam on just the black halogen projectors and was like :eek2:

 

[Bru]

John from Spyder was also saying that only some of the H1 HIDs work with the projectors while others have bulbs that are too long. Instead of fishing around for the right kit I'd rather just have them ship everything at once and not have to hassle with finding the right kit.

 

[AlmightyBirdman]

I would just figure out the exact kit they ordered and order it seperatly. When I get the money to drop on these I'm just going to replace the bulbs they come with with Silverstar Ultra's because the Halogen looks bright enough to me, but I still don't think it's worth the risk of not having a warranty.

I was contemplating putting in a set of Silverstars and calling it a day, too. I've got some aftermarket fogs and would get a matching set for those. But then I saw the HIDs in these projectors.

We'll see.

Yeah, it does look pretty hot. I just have really bad luck when it comes to consumer electronics and like to have the warranty. All in the same month I've had one of my subs, my head unit, my laptop, and my 360 all fail because of manufacturer defects, and this is why I like to have warranties.

 

[GraFFix]

No matter how much the stock headlights suck..there is no way Id spend that much on a set of headlights.

Ill stick to my stock ones with HID's

 

[Bru]

I've driven plenty of cars with projection halogens and projection HIDs, and there is no comparison to my HIDs and black housings; the projectors are better in every regard. It's also a safety concern for me as most of my driving is at night nowadays. With HIDs you can see something as small as a reflective shoe a half mile away. It's a tough call to spend this much money on headlights, but for me it's worth it.
