they look clean..if you want the JDM look, keep your current headlights or JDM headlights, paint the housing black so it doesnt cause the glare put in the HID projectors from any OEM car equipped with HID's..i suggest s2000/audi/bmw.. then you can follow the steps from there...there is a bunch of threads here that have actual picture and walkthrough on how to install them on your car. GL!..lotta time and patience to make it right!

I would check out HIDplanet.com

That is like the "honda-tech" for HID. I got all my info there!!

Those headlights you posted would be perfect for a HID retro if you did not want to use your original headlights. I have an EG civic and I bought the same headlights but the version for my car, and I retro'ed EURO Golf IV HID's into.
