Default Blacking out 06+ Headlight!

Hey I remember a while a go there was a mob on here, they had a thread that had 50million responses that specialised in blacking out headlights, doing LED mods, replacing the oem projector lens with the one from a wrx sti to have a better cutoff etc etc

where are they now?

I think you're talking about Cincity. And you probably mean the thread I made about them screwing me over . I think they're still on here, they just dont get much business since so many people got screwed by them. Why do you ask about them?

Here's a link to my thread, is this the one?

I know another popular place that a lot of people on here got their lights done at is clearcorners.com. I'm not sure if they do the LED "R8" mod, but you can email them and ask. So far all the reviews I read from them have been really good. Here's a link to their site. Good luck!

+1, plenty of people on here will tell you to stay far away from Cincity. And if you do send your lights to them, good luck getting a hold of them once they have your money

If you want to pay 900 bucks for something you can do yourself for a fraction of the cost, then wait six plus months to get back hardware that you'll have to send back for some reason, go with cincity. They won't let you down.

It's just time consuming but if done with care, it usually looks better than shop work..

250 for 6. then 200 for 5 when putting them back together. This will reduce/eliminate the rainbow glow inside the light once assembled

honestly I don't have the time or patience, I work 60+ hours a week and find that I'm too tired to do anything other than spend time with my wife and boy when I can..

I might give lightwerkz a go, anyone had theirs done by them?
