From what I've heard from other owners either the Hipermax III's (Street) or KW Variant 3's would be ideal. I'm in the same position as you (other than the fact that I'm on cheap Tein Basic's instread of springs) and am looking to upgrade in the next year or so.

Good luck!

Yea my guy took the handles off and painted them for $50. And mine is even harder than what you ahve to do cause I have a black car so it had to be color-matched, your car's silver so any shade of balck will work. Go get quotes from differnet shops maybe?


Any yea, there is no UTEC, it's uprev and SOLO-350z your thinking about

ive been contemplating that ever since i put them on. i just cant decide to do it, b/c i like the tinted look. i wish it was darker, but i dont want to actually paint them with niteshades.

I think you should paint the headlights either a dark gray or black, and take the film off the headlights.

kit was 1370 shipped
prep/paint/install was 840. theres a guy here in tampa that has no overhead, so he can afford to do GREAT work for a lot less than everyone else.
bluekustoms.com for anyone in central florida.
great price on the labor, etc.
