They don't look that bad, but they're way too expensive. They'll end up like the fake JDM one pieces. They started out at $200, and they're down to $100 and still no one buys them

*edit* I found a set with a picture of them mounted on a car. Ugly as all hell. I think I'll stick with getting black housing one pieces. Quick vote. Should I get clear or amber corners?

Doesn't look bad. The corners are questionable. IMO it would look a lot better in black housing.

You've never seen a picture of one pieces with amber sides actually on a car? They look pretty good. Depends on what color the turn signals are, and what color the car is

Direct me to this picture. The lude ninja needs to see it. It would take an act of God to get rid of my JDM ones though. Imported from Bangkok...which is a really good stripper around here.

As soon as the price goes down that might be a cheap and easy way to do retrofits. Just buy a pair of those and take off the projector portion and fit it into your JDMs. That might not look too bad...

If the corner section looked better and those were black housing, I would buy them in a few months when the price drops.

I still have a passager side JDM black housing..Maybe I could do a trial on it. If no one wants to buy it. But only if the price drops.

I'm going to do it once the price drops. I'll take out the projecter section and probably spray over the chrome housing surrounding the projector black, and make a n00b attempt at some cheap retrofits. I'll do a test run on my USDMs I have laying around first, but I'll put a write up once the time comes. Finally I'll have some properly housed HIDs.

Those look fantastic! Who did your retrofit, and what are the projectors off of?
