Very nice job with the headlight treatment. Everything looks great, but I think that when you start putting on aftermarket lips, bumpers, sideskirts, etc..., the factory rims begin to look a little funny. Some 18in Track model rims would do the trick, or even the Touring's 18's in black.

I'll take pictures tonight. I have the whole new setup sans tires and coilovers. I'm trying to get the right ones.

click for full size...



The headlights I've spent the past 2 months on...



Running lights...



I'll get some good pictures when we do a full shoot, but I still have a long ways to go before I'm done...

Anyone have a source for the little nismo duct? Even though it's a replica it's got the opening for it.
You got any close up pics of the shroud/bezel you used. Also planning a retro but have not jumped into it due to not finding anything that will look decent.

Could use some crome around the projector or something to break it up a bit

Chrome would have been nice. I used what I had though. Click on the picture in the middle and it should give you a high-res version.

I used a 4" to 3" PVC flange

HOME DEPOT FTW!

I'll get some updated pictures. I redid the housings with better projectors (that actually work).

I have used the 4" to 3" and the 3" to 2" (for a very small 1.5" euro golf projector) be4 in other retro's =) There are lots of things that u can mount to them for some crome, all at home depot. Mostly the flanges look the best and come in the right sizes for the projectors.

I wasn't able to find a chrome 3" ring for the life of me. I figured the aluminum flashing above the projector would give it enough bling.
