i, like most of you, have the custom skyline mesh grille installed with the black mesh in it right now. i was wondering if anyone has switched out that metal for a different type, or painted it or something. i saw this picture and it made me curious.

ya i was just wondering if anyone had switched that mesh that comes in the grille out for a different type of metal?

but also, i am thinking about buying that angel eyes headlight kit for my g, thats what makes it look like it has circles around the lights in that picture if you dont know what im talking about...but ya it makes it look like the new bmw headlights, which i personally love

hehe thats my car but the mesh isnt switched out. and for the angel eyes do u mean halo's like the ones on beamers? if so dont do it, personally i think it only looks good on beamers and any other car with them looks tacky.

It's all a matter of preference, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Some might think that the CF look is tacky...

truly spoken... ...i think it looks tight, really custom too so that it will definitely stand out at night. and that means more turned heads

i agreeee, still a good look though.

and hey do yall think that the halo kit/angel eyes for the g would be very difficult to install well? and what about wiring in the headlights, would adding two extra tiny wires call a seperation of any sealing or create a possible leak into the headlight where moisture could get?

anyone who has changed out bulbs in their g, is there a little extra room for two little wires to come out without messing with any seals? because the last thing i would want is for moisture to sstart collecting around my xenons and headlights
