Accident! Poor stillen fascia,New eBay Projector *With Pics*

[mikethemike]

When I did my headlights on my old Altima, it would fog up. What I did to air it out was just take out the signal bulb and let it sit in the sun. Not the ACTUAL bulb, but the thing that the bulb connects to. works every time, but just annoying.

Thank you for the compliment bro.. Yea that mofo was driving way too fast for going the wrong way.. If hes car is few second ahead or drive few miles faster, We would definitely end up in a head to head by the curve. ... God was watching out for me that day for sure.

The dash cam is a eBay fake 1080p cam lol i got mine for under 20$.. I figure the quality is good enough to capture any insurance fraud , hit/run incident or any cop pulling over for speeding situation. Good luck man

[iamjon86]

lol yea that was scary especially since you guys were going at each other from a curve practically.

Thanks for the link, I'm probably gonna get one as well. You can never be too safe haha. Cheers

hey devil (or anyone else who bought the ebay headlights), I was just wondering from looking at the other posts. Does your ebay headlights come with HID or halogen. I was thinking about pulling the trigger on one of these with HID, but wasn't sure if it was worth it. I read that the reflective coating will melt if I get HID for these projectors, so now, I'm a little hesitant. But for 300 bucks, its so tempting. Also would the HID kit be separate in the package in comes in with the headlights. If so, I might just use halogen for the moment and not use the HID kit it comes with. What should I do - Yay or Nay to the ebay headlights?

[Pxt7916]

Oh and these are the ones I'm talking about. I'm pretty sure everyone saw the pics. But if anyone has any comments - pros or cons. Please let me know. So want to pull the trigger on these - but I don't want to blind anyone!

Though I do love the way they look, the performance of the actual projector is absolutely terrible, both halogen and HID. They just arent quality projector bowls, the beam pattern is very scattered and random.

For me, its OK because I rarely drive at night or in the dark at all. If you want them for looks, go for it. If you want them for actual projector performance, do not. Contact Dangeris Lumenations for the full legit retrofit package.

[Pxt7916]

Would it be worth it if I buy them and open them up and see if it's possible to switch the projector bowl? I know it's not easy.. But 300 bucks may be worth it to mess around with? Is the angel eye halo decent quality? So the halogen one is also scattered? I want to get some headlight work from Dangeris but im kinda in a budget right now and I don't wanna give up my oem headlights. I rather have that as back up.

[Pxt7916]

So would this be better then stock halogen lights? Or is it so garbage that oem halogen reflector lights is better?

[DJ_B_Easy]

OEM halogen is better.

Honestly if you are willing to crack headlights at all, just do your OEM ones and paint them how you want, install the halos yourself, etc. You can crack these but not sure how easy it would be to swap out the projector. Its a bit different than a regular retrofit.

[Pxt7916]

Damn, these eBay lights are that garbage huh? I really don't wanna touch my oem lights.. Just in case I decide to do a trade in or something.

[DJ_B_Easy]

IMO yes, they are not worth the money. If I had to go back I would not have bought them.

Hi Beam @ 30-40 Ft

No offense to the OP but...OMG...Wht the hell is that? Ok guys glad these pics got posted but this is a perfect opportunity to show the quality of my projector retros vs a cheap ebay lights. These pics were shot about 100' away and the cut offs are perfect! So yeah..you DO get what you paid for

From 100 ft or so


From 4o ft or so

I like how everytime someone posts a projector headlight thread that arent yours you manage to find the thread and bash them and start comparing them to yours. We get it yours may be better leave these threads alone let people buy the ebay ones, sh** they look good to me and im sure their significantly cheaper. Car looks good by the way devilmagic, convinced me to get them.

[devilmagic]

haha no worries man.. im not offended if anyone talk bad about my car, me as a person or anything in my life.. we all know you win some and you lose some, to me there always another mountain that is higher, greener, and bigger than you .. if you enjoy life as it is.. go with it.. its all good and gravy baby! ... but honestly though, if money and quality isnt the issue.. I really recommend dangeris coupe's custom made halos.. they look sick as hell and from the looks of it.. quality stuff! .. In end of the day.. either with eBay projector or our forum members projector.. as long as you like what you see.. its all good right?

Hey devilmagic, I'm unable to PM yet but I was wondering about your stillen bumper. I'm guessing you had to get it painted? I'm looking into getting one for my '08. Mines red just like yours and even has the same headlights eitherway, i was just curious as to how much you think it would be to have the new front painted to match my car color.

the above question was about ordering a brand new one and I saw your post on the page before haha. If the fascia is still up for grabs I'm interested in it!

[devilmagic]

The fascia is still up for grab. The cost to paint range anywhere $250-400 in my area. Text me my cell if you interested in the fascia. (317)414-96 one seven

Said the man with 1 post? He is right on every account. I bought these eBay projectors and I still agree with everything Dangeris said. Until you see an eBay set and one of Dangeris' sets in person you really cant compare the two. I wish more of these threads were around before I bought mine, because then I wouldnt have. Thats why the forum is here, so people can post their experiences in the threads and help others, not just "leave them alone".
