Eyelids- already paid for them, and it'll cost another $50 to get professionally painted and installed. Probably can sell for $25 or so.

Projectors- need to buy the projectors module PLUS new HID bulbs to make use of my existing Mu ones, and then installation costs.

it's more to do with the HIDs i already have... to upgrade to the projector ones, buy the new h7 bulb, and then get it all installed i'm looking at $400aud+ which just isn't worth it for something which isn't really going to do anything. if i was gonna spend that on changing something i already changed, i might as well save it and put it towards rims lol.

You can buy bulbs at about $40 each. Keep your exisiting ballasts.
What do you mean its not going to do anything? Its projected light and makes the car look hot. Then you can say why spend $1k on a bodykit which does nothing but looks? I think the projector headlamps is one of the best mods available for our FD.

Are you really gonna spend $1k+ on just the HIDs?

It uses standard 35w so I don't see why not. The actual issue of legality would be your car, whether your car originally comes with HIDs and if you have auto-levelling device and washers installed.

As in, because I've already modified headlights before and that cost me nearly $400, I don't think it's worth spending another $400 more on it. Would rather use the money for something else. Simple. If I hadn't done the HIDs before, and if I wasn't saving up for next car's mods, then I probably would get the projectors but as it stands now I think I'll pass. Probably just pop the eyelids on this weekend.

**Shimian** · 18-06-2008 08:00 AM

well, youll only need to spend another $100 or less to change the bulbs. Thats the only differrence.
Again, its up to you. Since you have mugen kit, led tail lamps, why not go for eagle eyes. I think the eyelids arent worth $50 to spray. Thats pretty much the $$$ for new bulbs.
