Are you talking about the OEM-Style chrome housing headlights?

Those are basically just cleared headlights. They're made by the same company in Taiwan that makes the OEM "Black" housing headlights (the gunmetal ones). Poor quality, I don't recommend them, but they would look nice. My suggestion is to just clear your headlights.

If you're talking about something else, just ignore me.

Good luck.

Are you talking about the sliver TYC projectors? If so I think that those would look sweet on our silver vics. I have thought about buying them, but have to man y other things to spend that money on.

i've seen it before somewhere on the net and it looked real good, just make sure you get the right color to match, i've been planning on doing mine along with my tails when i get a spare day, my only prob is i have a carbon fiber hood so which would look better black or silver??? think ill go with the silver though when i do it

RedDragon333 will become famous soon enough
i think the black housing would look tight since you have a CF hood
