I already see that. If anything, i see more coupes like that than sedans.

The G35 is the next civic...already there

 

Take off your lenses and blackout the inside of the headlight, but DON'T do the reflectors for the lights.

Once you're done, reseal the headlights, polish the lenses and IMMEDIATELY put on a clear overlay to protect them.

 

Great?

I know for a fact you blinded oncoming traffic. HID Kit + Non HID housing = Blinding Rice

 

how is that any difference from oem halogen headlight assemblies with an hid kit? no rice glare here

 

There are design differences between halogen reflector headlights and HID reflector headlights. It's not the ballasts and actual lighting, but differences in the actual reflector itself plus the fact that reflector HID's use a unique D2R bulb which is painted on the top half to cut down glare. Plus the focal point it different. One housing is designed for a thin wire of tungsten, while the other is designed for an arc tube. Even if they were placed in the exact same position, there will be stray light and hot spots.

The debate is VERY heated on the internet, but basically the arguement is that aftermarket HID's in a halogen housing is a no-no because of excess glare produced above the cut-off line. EVERY car forum i'm on has had this arguement at one time or the other. I haven't seen it much here since 90% of the cars here are OEM HID anyway.

In terms of legality, all aftermarket kits are illegal

 

im not comparing reflectors on oem hids with halogen reflectors with aftermarket hids installed, you misunderstood what i said. The guy Truth was bashing the other one for getting the Ebay halogen headlights and installing hids on them saying that he probably has a ricer glare. And i said that how would it be any different than hid's installed on a G that came stock with halogen headlights which is what many people did including myself and i don't have a ricer glare

 

The HID kit is another topic...we are talking about the ebay head lamps. The OP has oem halogen lamps so it really makes no difference. Almost everyone I have read saying that the ebay lights suck, don't own them. I actually owned them and they offered pretty much oem quality with a black housing.

As for the the HID's blinding people, you are correct that most of the time that is true and it's the reason why I took them off my wifes Suzuki SX4...but the G35 apparently didn't bother most people because I did a few trial runs with friends coming in the opposite directions and everyone said they didn't bother any more than oem ones. I did have them pointing down though but they offered pretty good visibility.

 

^GT-ER so you didn't have to modify anything, everything was plug and play? did they fit properly with the fender and bumper?

 

correct...it was flawless.

 

Nicee I'll def get em, my oems are so gross

 

Ah, i did misunderstand you. My apologies.

 

No prob Stang

 

are these the same as the ones you guys are talking about?:http://www.k2motor.com/lhg3503jmks.html

i have these. here is why: i got in an accident a while ago and had to have one of my stock lights replaced. the one that got put in to replace it, had a dark grey bezel as apposed to the stock silver, plus the old silver stock one was all foggy and the new one was prefectly clear of course. i hated the mismatch so i bought these, not even thinking about the halogen vs. HID. stupid i know. now i have these installed, they look good without the lights on, but when lights are one, no HID, kind of a bummer. I want to switch my factory HID kit (or another HID kit if i have to) to them, but am afraid the housing will melt or the clear lens will get foggy and start bubbling due to heat (have had people tell me this can happen). Anyone know if this is true?

 

^those are a different brand than the other ones and they're listed 03-06, while the ones posted on the first page are 03-04 and those have amber lenses in the turn signal as opposed to clear lens

 

I had HIDs on mine and it never got ugly.
