before the search nazi's bombard me i searched, earlier this week (that why it aint in the cache, and i even searched page to page for this. I saw a headlight conversion or mod, that is similar to the ebay ones but it had a cover, i saw it on a red car from a store, that someone else posted in someone elses headlight mod post, this certin store sells a r34 bodykit for the r32 like a conversion for 10k if that rings any bells regarding what site i am talking about.. thnx

Bomex had a like a 20 piece widebody conversion kit to turn an s14 into an r34. It is now discontinued..more than likely due to lack of sales/ridiculously high price.

Not real but...

Does anyone know what kind of lights you would use with this? Raceon has some PIAA driving lights, but they say that they are for extra light, not for primary or something...

Ugh, I swear one of these threads pop up about headlight conversions and someone posts a pic of the SuperMade kit, and everyone is like "OMG teh JDM Sechs" Not to troll or anything, just a rant.

Anyway, I talked to RareTrick a while back and the housings are $300 and a kit w/ Halogens was like $6-650. HID's are considerably more expensive IIRC. Since the legit SM's are the same price as the crappy RaceOn's people should def buy the real one's. I've wanted these for sooooo long, I'd love to retrofit some Honda/Mazda projectors into them but I just can't justify spending that kind of $$$. That being said SuperMade's are the ƒucking shi† bar none!

Here's a rendition of them. I belive they are using RaceOn stuff...
