Default Retro + SC wheels + Habi = Sexy Time!!

So I have been trying to get my retro done for a good month now and everything was going well, but then Fedex Fd some **** up. The headlights that we going to be retro for me were all Fd up. So, long story short, Bjorn from CustomLightz gave me a call and told me that if I could come down on Friday (yesterday), he could have my retro done in about 4 hours and have me on my way home. He told me he had another set of civic reflectors laying around and he could have my projectors in the reflectors before I got there so all he would have to do is pop open my headlights, take out my reflectors, and put the new ones in. I was happy as **** and decided that I would make the 4.5 hour drive on a Friday with my gf. We got down there around 4ish, met Bjorn, then went to the shop. Now I got to see where the magic happens. We took out my headlights and then went inside to start popping those bitches open. Bjorn was very helpful explaining everything to me and we all had a fun time laughing about ****. I decided that I wanted to make the amber in the turn signals a little darker, so they painted the chrome behind the amber low-gloss black and it really set it off. We had everything back together ready to start installing the harness and then Bjorn noticed a little piece of yellow glass, from one of my drls that broke, inside my headlight. I told him it was no big deal, but he insisted that he open the headlights again to get it out. THAT right there showed me their attention to detail and that they don't want to put something on someone's car that doesn't look amazing. So then we went to start the harness on the car in the dark, in 25 degreee weather. Bjorn did an amazing job using zip ties and hiding all the wires. He made sure everything was perfect. Then we finally got the headlights installed. I was amazed. After looking at them for a little while, Bjorn said we need to go aim them. We drove around for about a half hour while stopping whenever we could to adjust the beam. Finally, we were done. Everything was perfect and the cutoff was amazing. I have to give mad props to everyone at CustomLightz, but mainly Bjorn for doing all this for me. He was freezing his *** off installing some lights on my car so that I would be happy AND he didn't get bothered or anything. That is true customer service right there. Well enough babbling, here are the pics.


SPARK NOTES: Drove 9 hours all together to get retro, Bjorn and CustomLightz FTMFW, Now have the hottest habi!































Cutoff pics will be up tonight or tomorrow, but it's not dark enough yet. You REALLY need to see these in person to appreciate these.

TSX projectors? Nice retrofit.

You know what would really make them "pop" is if you painted the headlights Habi. That'd be sick.

Thanks man. I just got my income tax, so now I'm thinking about the HFP kit. I still need to decide what coils I want too.

We both got our retro's on about the same day. I have a Habi sedan and have MDX instead of S2000 shrouds. Nice to see your HID's came out lookin' sweet too. I am hoping Bjorn will post the pics on his site I sent to him.
