Customlightz knows how to do a retro right!!

Got my retro back on Fri, installed on Sat, made ALL my friends jealous Sat night. I cannot give enough props to Bjorn at customlightz, what a truly GREAT guy. I could not be happier with the results of my retro. Professional attitude and results that were worth EVERY penny I spent for this to be done. Their wiring harness was perfect, the quality of the materials and workmanship is top notch, and Bjorn is extremely cool on top of that. If you are thinking about having a retro done, give Bjorn and the guys at customlightz a look. The results speak for themselves. Check the pics.

Thanks, Aaron.












Here is the link to the pics before install on their web site.

Got MDX shrouds on ebay merely by luck. Used TSX projectors provided by customlightz.

Got them for right around $900, but I sent them my own MDX shrouds. Don't even want to tell you how cheap I got the shrouds for on ebay. They were 2 left headlight shrouds, so no one scooped them up. I knew they were going to mod them, so it didn't matter if they were both left shrouds. $39.00 shipped.

She was just posing for pics today> LOL

I just put those on for the pics to post up on customlightz.com, only put 2 on the 1 side.
Before I found out the wife was pregnant, I had a blue 05 RSX-S. They matched that perfectly. Fortunately, they fit the Si too. I still think they look really hot on the Habi red. They make a different impression in person, especially with the HID's blazin'.

Thanks for the replies guys.

I never realized how rectangular the low beam section of the sedan headlight is. It makes for a very different look when blacked out.

Thanks guys, I know it is expensive, but it truly is a great mod.

The looks are secondary to me, the light output is my concern.

I didn't even have to aim them straight outta the box, perfectly balanced.
