you can find these lights anywhere. places like panda garage, jspec, some of the sponsors on here, ebay, etc. mine came from a nico member.

i will have a huge update soon. i just want to wait till i have all these things im working on done cuz a lot has changed and i just want to debut it all at once

yah sorry for the 5 page bump haha, o yah, did you just spray with black or did you finish with a clear coat?

i've looked but id imagine you guys probably paid at least 3-400 for the lights

I was a little disappointed at first when I saw that it was still 4 lug but its still clean as fluck! I can't wait till this monday I'm going to start my build thread tonight hopefully and list everything I've got on my car, plans for future projects on it, and parts i just bought.... I'm making up for wc's 4 lugs.... hehe.... They should all be in this comming monday. Can't wait! I wanna know why you moved your sig lighter inside the center console and why you fiber-glassed the ashtray and original cig lighter place...... And the super funny thing is we now have the same exact color hatch.... I just have to swap my wiring over from when my window got busted out.

One more ?.....

Are you blockin off the center vents with that black piece???

yeah i know i know, i just cant justify 5lugs though. i can spend the money somewhere else, the wheels i want come in 4 lug, my real car (fc) is 5 lug) and teh brakes upgrade works with 4 lug
