I dont think anybody is arguing that PNPs are better.

Is that what a TSX's headlights would look stock? That wide?

Oh.. did you find out what color the paint for the RSX rims are?

Theres been a number of threads where people claim that PnP HID = HID Retrofit and thus retrofit = waste of $$

As far as I know, this should be very close to what TSX looks like stock.

@ Ryan.... i hate you!!!
People who say PNP = Retros are just ignorant. But retros ARE alot of money... not a waste, but alot.

Did you find out what color the paint is for the RSX rims are?

I would love to see a direct comparision. Same car, same car, same time of day. One with PNP kit and the other retro. Or for that matter stock as well. And yes we know retros are better, they better be for the cost.

Nice! however the road looks like it curves up so it kind of makes it look like the light doesnt reach that far. Is that road you were on flat or does it curve up? If curved, may I request same pics on flat road?
