Those Phillips bulbs are off the hinges. For $40 too!!!! Damn son, solid score. Way to pile on some more sauce. I'm completely loving you progress.

Thanks dude! Looks like you're on your way too...



UPDATE: Installed some eBay window visors today...i've had them for a while, but when i mocked them up, they looked a little like ass. I intended to return them for a refund, but i forgot and missed the cutoff date.

Wutevs...figured i'd install them for shits'n'giggles...I think after some trimming and some new 3M double sided tape they'll fit much better.

no pics as of yet...i'll snap some tomorrow in the daylight.

good job on those headlights how much time did you invest in them?

[islandhopper]

Thanks.

Off the top of my head, i'd say about 6.5 hours total.

Restoration - 2hrs
Painting/Tinting - 2hrs (experimenting with amber paints)
Modifications - 1.5hrs
Tuning - 1hr....and counting....

doesn't seem too bad considering that the end result is gorgeous.. you should try to mod headlights for other people to bring in extra revenue on the side

Thanks Jack. Your write up helped me do this! I love just driving around at night...the cut-off is so wide and intense with the philips bulbs. I love it.

Those look like epsilon mesh. Don't know exact model, could be southern ways. Just never liked it when People automatically assume cause it mesh that its enkie 92.

Bet these came off an old school z;

^You are correct, Epsilon Southern Ways mesh.

They look good with your color car man, keep up the progress.

Did you use a JDM grill when you installed the one piece headlamps. I tried mounting my set up yesterday but the grill didn't line up nice and flush.

[Cb_JoeyG]

Yup, you're also correct about the Z. You know your wheels my friend.

Thanks, bud! I can't wait till they're all done.

Yes, as 90ACCORDLXGUY has stated in the past, the JDM grille and the chrome trim on 90-91s have interlocking forms so they fit flush with each other when mounted.

Yup thats a JDM grill!

See ya at the spring meet!

Thankyou Sir. You are one of the biggest inspirations for me, bro. Always making moves and shit, really lit a fire under me!
