You know, if they could make that grill emulate the 99-00 Si grill I would be all over that.

The headlights are hideous.

If you want crystal pure white color, go with the 4300k. 6000k give a slight aqua color, while the 8000k is more blue. But it also depends on which kit you buy, some temps are different colors when using different brands of HID.

Here is a couple pics of the color spectrum chart

5200k is what most oem hid temperatures are set at, do whatever color/combo you want it's youre car. Don't let someone con you into buying something you don't like.

I agree. Everyone has their own unique style, and everyone will have something to say either its a compliment, or a bashing, everone will have something to say. Like me. I don't like the JDM Integra front end. Looks like a car with down syndrome. And people will say whatever, like you can't afford it so don't bash and blah blah blah...People use to make fun of me because I use to drive a Teg with 4 different colors. Until I beat them muwahhaha....Anyway make it unique and you know what? Some will like it, and do it themselves and some will bash because you didn't get the JDM front end, or you didn't get the whatever that everyone is doing. Be creative.
That doesn't mean you go buy a GT aluminum wing. That would be funny.

If you like the black-housing headlights (which I do and have on my CD5) then you can DIY. I've never done this, but quite a few people have.......bake the headlights and take them apart, then paint the inside with high temp black BBQ paint (not reflector) and then reseal them. HID I'd go with 4300K or 6000K, not 8000K like I did.

Don't waste your money on projectors. Waste your money on a retrofit.

you'll end up with a shittier output than the stock headlight. and they look like poo anyway.
Depends on the brand of headlight. If you are going to do this without doing a retrofit but TYC headlights. I have 10K hids in my TYC projectors and the cut off is great and I can actually adust them so I am not blinding the **** out of every one on the road. I have had the same set up for over 2 years now and they still work great and are way better than the stock bulbs.
