why would you get rid of the turn signals? and for the lights, go with a combo of driving/fog lights (ebay, autozone, ) stuff should be just fine,

these were the lights i was thinking of getting for mine.

ok i said the turn signals cause the red ones dont have the bumper lights and the yellow lights are in with the headlights. but basically like advanced and pep boys and places like that. and sorry to say that green 240 ^ those lights are the f'n ugliest lights iv ever seen

doesnt this topic come up every month or so.

flush headlights for the most part look like saturns......... if they dont they are the ebay frog cars.........

rarely the race ones are pulled off, but require lots of areo and being done RIGHT, not 1/2 assed.

ps not a fan origin ones, but they are OG

heres my old car. my brother molded on a front kit (dont know the name) but he took the metal headlights covers and welded them to the original hood then shaved them down. it was alright to drive, they just needed to be brighter bulbs. not bad look tho

how well do those lights work? could you post up some nighttime road shots to see how they work. and do they still fold down or are they permanent sleepy like the rest? if they do fold down and the lighting is good, could you do a quick breakdown for it?

That doesn't look too bad. I don't know how well they'll light the road, though.

They are okay at night, no hid No they don't fold down all the guts and headlight motors were removed to make room for IC piping and it really increased airflow to the motor.

Make sure you upgrade the bulbs to the strongest ones you can find. Driving lights are not enough for at night. Trust me I know....
