If you got it at the same place streetlightz got it from then I'm getting it at the same place in taiwan too lol.

you order replica from streetlightz?
make sure you take it to a good bodyshop.

the front and rear bumper needs to be trim abit.
just pay attention to the edge of the bumper.

the bodyshop that i went to is a di*k, they didnt do a good job so i have no choice other than repaint it when it gets worse.

My question is: who's going to be the first Taffeta FA5 with JDM conversion and a retrofit? That's what I want to see.

are you getting from JDMugen aka chien?
well its hard to explain but you need some work on every edge of the bumper.
when you see the product you'll now what im talking about.

just make sure you take it to a bodyshop, have them test fit it on your car before they paint it.

Um, I've never heard him being called JDMugen but I think his name is Chien, thats the name of the guy in Taiwan right? the guy im going through is in Cali.

=/ so what exactly is wrong? its the edge not the corners?

Devalue?! Headlights that are designed for the other side of the road are WORTHLESS in my opinion. So to upgrade the lighting to North American-spec and HID would be a huge huge improvement and increase in value.

Don't get me wrong. I love the cosmetic appearance of the JDM headlights- but I think you can have your cake and eat it with a retrofit. I know that it's probably a bit much to expect, but I'm speaking as one with experience in buying beautiful JDM headlights and retrofitting them (for another car).
