One word: Eyelids



Also find online some of the "Chrome" amber bulbs. I've gotten my two sets off ebay and the first set is over 3 years old and still working great (I have the TYC tails, and replaced the ugly amber bulbs with chrome in there too, completely changed the look.)

You should paint them, ppl paint them black which is cool, but if you are looking to stand out paint them to color match your car, the inside of course the eye lids are cool, but why not try a retrofit that's a head turner and it looks aggressive too.

I agree with big lo. Do a retrofit. Paint the reflector bowls black. You have a black and red theme going, so I'd say stick with it. You've got a sweet look going there, but like you said, the headlights now need some work.

Your ride is looking sweet!!



You can do this too, but it'd probably look a little weird with the eyelids unless you changed it up a little.

Wow, a somewhat sunny day in Washington. Car is looking good. Fogs would be nice and I'm sure it would help out there at night.
