Default Hood or Headlights

I posted a thread about it, but I figure the poll would be better
my friend owes me, he bent my hood. He said he replace the hood with a CF hood, but I'd have to help alittle.
Or he will get me new headlights, one of mine is dim and they both dont point right. I caught between the two

So my choices are

CF OEM style hood
or Gen 3 Halo black housing headlights (I like the headlights so )

mmmm 18 votes toward hood, 0 to headlights
haha
I was going for that...
Cause I know the price of the light will probably go down more. and a CF hood would just look good. haha

sorry Tony
lol

I just got a set of the Denji G3 c/f angel eyes as well as my friend here. He hooked his up but I am waiting until I get my wheels and drop my car.

All I have to say about them is
They are bad-a$$!!!!

But, I would get both ...at least that is what I am doing. OEM style c/f hood with the c/f angel eyes and JDM corners

eventully im getting the angel eyes. but it will be a few months. I just bought my swap, so I will be feeling that for a while.

First and foremost this is a TECHNICAL forum. This means that people should be able to gather various info such as how to findpart numbers, where to find parts, specifications, and basically any general info. Does this mean that every single topic has to be a how to find or list part numbers or specs? No, but I hope that the majority of them are.

Having said that I was just going to type up some guidelines or rulesEfor the forum then.

1. Topics with pictures of your car should hopefully have some tech-related info in them. I have seen some great tech info come from threads that had nothing more than pics of someones car and another member asked how he or she did a certain thing to the car. Threads with nothing more than look at my new wheelsEare just fine, but they belong in the appearance forum, not this forum. I am lenient about this to an extent because I feel like we are all a community here, and I like to see what we all do with our cars - as long as you include some sort of tech info you should be fine. We also have a thread that is solely just for non-tech pictures or our cars. It's title is "Post Pics of Your Car HERE."

thanks for bringing that up, I realize it shoulda been more of a apperance type question. Now that I think about it, I dont know why I put it here. It makes sense, since my car is a civic.

but thanks anyways.

I already got the swap
its waiting to be put in now. DX187VTEC was saying I should take that money from the hood and get put it towards the engine. but im a attention ***** and want the hood. lol.

I was working on my car one day and I had the hood on the stand. he started to wooble it back and forth, bending the whole hood. when we closed ther hood there was a 1 inch gap. we bent some of it, but there still a gap. so he offer to pay for a hood up to 300. so im goonna go CF
