replacement parts

hey, i'm looking at getting some other head lights because i don't want the stock lights for my car. the body shop will get me what ever i want, and insurance will pay up to the price for OEM stuff, so i was looking at getting these lights. anybody have any other suggestions? i also need to get pricing for my hood and the xenon front piece, but i can get those easy, i'm really just looking for opinions on lights.

does anybody make good angel eyes that don't leak? or would i be better off with something else?

here's the pic of the lights i'm looking at.
Autodynamic - they're $160, so i could get them with no problem.

Tornactive - They're a whole $5 less, and look better IMO.

Those will look good on your car. Tornactive has some gunmetal colored headlights like that. You might could look into them too and see if theres a price difference.

thanks guys. yeah, i got into an accident, and my car is pretty jacked up. but the guy said it's repairable, so if i wanted any different stuff just to price it and compair to OEM. now i just need to get price for the paint on the hood. a pair of stock lights is $475, so i have plenty of money to blow on these.

i'm still waiting for pics from the accident to get developed, i'll post them in off topic when i do.

I have those lights, and they look awesome IMO. Per Rob at Tornactive, they're the exact same lights as autodynamic has. The pictures must have been taken at different angles & lighting. Anyway, I've seen them for as low as $115 on ebay depending on which way you want to go. I bought mine from Tornactive & have not had any problems with them leaking & I've had them on my car since august. I recall hearing one complaint about them leaking from a member who had bought them on ebay.

Those would look sweet on your car man.
Sorry to hear about the accident, but I know the pain all too well.

Post the Pics when you get them.

I think those look good.

they're gunmetal though.. black would probably look better?

but I've heard some bad review on them... ie: leaks and etc.

the ones on tornactive look a little better IMO, the parking light circle is chrome all the way up where the ones on autodynamic look like they're just a little chrome cup that stops about an inch from the front. i don't know if anybody understands what i mean, but yeah. thanks guys, that's everything i need, except how to get them cheaper from tornactive
