I just recently came across a set of s15 headlights and was pondering on whether or not i should convert the headlights for my 97 vtir???

the cost would be around the $1500 to $2000 mark.

or

should i sell those lights and put the money towards engine mods??? :|

If you are gonna do a front end conversion go the JDM front. That's cause i like it and think the S15 front would look crap.

Do what you think you will be happy with.

Yeh go the performance mods man..
There was an Integra at the Autosalon with S15 lights, looked like shit.

Can you get other 200sx gear? ;)

yeah man...the s15 conversion looks a bit wrong..

the jdm lights are definitely the way to go, otherwise just leave them...the normal lights look just as good imho
