s3xtc · 05-14-2008, 06:37 PM

how much did it run you?

CivicCoupe06 · 05-14-2008, 06:38 PM

I just paid labor. I bought all the supplies myself.

s3xtc · 05-14-2008, 06:41 PM

how much were the labour?how much were the parts?

s3xtc · 05-14-2008, 06:42 PM

need to get some in-action pictures when you clean your car

CivicCoupe06 · 05-14-2008, 06:44 PM

don't remember the part prices but labor was close to 300, plus harness which was 75$.

Yea I will take some good shots Friday night.

Jgams · 05-14-2008, 06:49 PM

I gotta get me a set of these.

Is the shroud flush with the back of the headlight? It looks like there is a gap in the first picture or maybe its just the reflection ...

CivicCoupe06 · 05-14-2008, 06:59 PM

its the reflection. I will however double check later.

geonice · 05-14-2008, 08:07 PM

Thats basically what I was goign to get from them.
TSX projectors
e46 replica shrouds
and also get the amber removed.

I just gotta wait for the money and try to find some old used headlights this is my commuter car so i cant have it out of commision for a week or id be screwed.

Zephbane · 05-14-2008, 10:27 PM

Looking nice.

Mine are queued up in the waiting list. Probably another 2 weeks until they start on mine. And another until I actually get them!

Not going full chrome like you and Xenin though.

Post More Pics! :)

striker_1818 · 05-14-2008, 10:58 PM

Xenin · 05-15-2008, 12:15 AM

i'm glad i've started the chrome housing retrofits idea.

now you're gonna get the:

- i didnt even notice you have projectors
- that looks stock
- WTF??? there's projectors in there, damn!

CivicCoupe06 · 05-15-2008, 11:13 PM

Thansk everyone. I will take pictures tomorrow night. i have to adjust them a little, they are too low.

borabora1989 · 05-16-2008, 01:14 AM

good luck. i had a hard time finding a place in my area that was level ground for me to adjust. i ended up taking a measuring tape and locking it at the height i needed it to be at 25' away and then stood the tape in the air and adjusted the left headlight to that height. worked like a charm as mine are dead straight.

striker_1818 · 05-16-2008, 02:31 PM

u don't really need a flat level ground to adjust them. They should already be aimed well horizontally so vertically just even the cutoff out

CivicCoupe06 · 05-16-2008, 02:38 PM

Yea there just really low. They hit right at the bumper of cars in front. They should hit the license plate correct?

take pix
it doesn't matter whether you're on a flat ground or not just take pics then we'll let you know

CivicCoupe06 · 05-16-2008, 03:32 PM

sent this to Ceasar, he said the drivers side needs to be higher.

no actually the whole beam is pointing down by alot.
But raise the passanger side and call it a day. If you can't aim it any higher then you're stuck with it. You can use a 12" screwdriver for that.
