same with the front emblem removal, just heat it up with a blow dryer for about one minute, once the emblem gets hot, carefully using a flat head or your hand, you should be able to remove it.

IMO the black headlights do not look good enough to give up the refraction you'd lose. I prefer headlights that put out a good beam over doing something that makes no sense.

i'd rather have lights that actually work well, instead of ones that "look cool"

Yeah -- great idea! Let's paint all of the reflector surfaces in our headlights black.

If only we could do something about that shiny windshield...wait, let's paint it black as well!

The lights we sell do not illuminate blue, they illuminate white. Maybe when compared to a standard halogen bulb, they look blue.. but then again, HID looks blue when compared to halogen.

Pictured here is our headlight with our LED side-markers. Clearly (no pun intended), the white LEDs match perfectly with the factory HID headlamps.. and these are not 6000 or 8000 kelvin, they are factory bulbs.

The factory 350Z headlamps are quite expensive, I wouldnt trust just anyone to work on them. If you want your lights modified correctly, you have to pay to have things done right. Besides, we use the absolute best LEDs available.
