JDM front end?
My buddy just got an LS and wants to get a JDM front end. He found it online for about $2,000 OEM-metal (non H.I.D) Im telling him to save up for the H.I.D.s too, but he says he wants it. What do u guy thinks? H.I.D or non H.I.D

A good paint job and install job will cost a pretty penny. Soup **** here on HT spent upwards of $7K for everything. His car is flawless in every respect.
PM him about it.

or am i missing something? bulbs, and ballasts. the headlight housing looks a little bit different( correct me if i am wrong) between non hid and HID, but the light of the OEM honda HID looks the best, imo .

$1400 paint and install? that's just for the front, not the whole car right? i heard it's about 2g's for full car there.

Re: JDM front end? (Gatecrasher18AF)
Why not just buy the conversion now, then get the OEM HID headlights later seperatley?
nothing like it in the aftermarket.
