I saw a post with this photoshoped Z eariler, I'm in the process of re-doing my headlights and I want to see what people's opinion of these headlights are. I have a concept very similar. When I do them, I will do a full write up with pictures on the install from start to finish along with the model #'s for the lighting selection. All lighting will be PIAA.
Can someone help me out with photoshop and make the color of the car Super Black? If it's not to hard, can someone put PIAA Super Rossa wheels on it?
Thanks for you help and your opinions!

It looks like only a little bit of fabricating. Definatley gotta use projector lenses. carbon fiber in the back w/ heat resistant clear coat... doesn't look like to much of a bizzle, if you have time and money.

I know the guy who put this together & unfortunately (like the Kenstyle shown above) it's custom & not for sale

Some people have offered me $ plus their headlights. I hadn't thought about it but, it doesn't matter to me because I'm gutting them anyway. PM me with any offer you guys want to make for my current headlights, but I MUST GET YOUR headlights and they must be completly free of SCUFFS, or SCRATCHES ON THE LENSES. NO EXCEPTIONS. I was planning on doing this to my headlights, so I have to have yours, I don't have an extra set and I don't have the time to take a cash offer and buy replacements. I'm on a short timeframe, I want to do this project next weekend. I can sell the guts of mine seperetly after I do the mod but, you will have to take yours apart to do the swap. The LEDs are drilled into the orange refelector strip and have been painted flat black. To swap them into another set of headlights, you will have to drill a hole in the back of your housing and seal it. My headlight also have been re-wired within the factory harness, it just plugs in, you will not need to rewire anything, everything works and has for the past 6 months.

Headlights is likely to be my next area of focus once i have my exhayst w headers, bodykit, suspension and stereo in place in some 2-3 months!
Only comment on improvement over how the photoshop is done is to have the surrounding area around the CF in the cars color instead of black as in that pic.
Best of luck with the project! Looking forward to some pics and DIY writeup!

Once I get the money up I plan on having Gallardo or Murci headlights put on my Z- the lights are like $2500 each though but I think it would be pretty cool and something no one else is going to have. And I have a sponsor who can do all the bodywork in the world so it's no problem there.
