What metal guards are you referring to?

Looks good, but the way the plate is displayed takes away from everything. I think mounting the plate correctly on the bumper would look cleaner than that

The dude probably just doesn't want to drill his bumper.

Does that bumper have a tow hook cover? If so, you should look into the Stillen no drill bracket: http://www.stillen.com/product/lic-p...v7i7v5nnirhun2

If it doesn't, I bet you could fashion a thin bracket and bolt it to the underside of the bumper.

Left is a projector bulb. Right is a reflector bulb. Some of the aftermarket bulbs can remove that metal band.

What about the SPEC D ones?
How is their quality?
I am just worried about the flaking/cracking.

Hey Man I appreciate your input. I do have the 06. Is there a reason as to why I should avoid those? I am guessing they are the same ones like on Ebay? Is it because they fade or haze easily?

I did the same thing as you and used the the high beam location to install the morimoto projectors. But since the that area sits lower my headlight is aimed lower. I cant make the projectors aim up high because the high beam location sits too low. Even if I adjust it I cant make it match the height as if it were in the low beam location.

This is why. This happened a few months after I installed them. My car is stored outside as we don't have Garages in Japan.
