I really like the way the Nismo looks on the 05/06.

The headlights pictured are custom projector retrofitted headlights with a clear lens in the turn signal. In order to get rid of the amber you'll have to dremel out the amber lens and replace it with a clear one.
Look again foo! There's no projector in that light

Other than that, yeah, that's a light that has had the orange dremelled out (have to be SUPER careful if you plan on leaving it chrome) and then replaced with florescent light cover stuff.

^Oh, I thought he was talking about my headlights. When I originally saw the post he hadn't yet quoted that photo.

You can't leave it chrome, the plastic is orange once it's cut. The whole turn signal shroud is made from transparent orange plastic and then painted chrome.

^I know.

It would be possible, but you'd have to do some really careful cutting and then a little touch-up (probably with black or sliver right around the edge)

Obviously that's what the guy in the pic must have done.

^That's for the 05/06.

It's been made to fit a 03/04 AREO bumper before (a-la GGG-G35) but it takes some work to do that.

Are you located in So Cal? If so I'd be willing to possibly work out a deal. I need an OEM front since mine is messed up. I have a one-off front bumper as well that'll fit the 05-06. It's the coupe Kenstyle but made to fit the sedan.
