OP, ur sig is WAY too big, u need to resize it and put it side to side like 702, not vertical. and chances are, the projectors on those lights are shit.

He said it's like trying to be an Audi/BMW...But yea looks awesome. I got a silver AC so I don't know how that will look.
the ONLY thing i dont care for kinda is the leds for a side marker. if it was like a light bar instead id like it better or just dont have it at all . but the projector halos look sweet
So what exactly are you spending $300 on then? For a set of angel eyes and LED's plus some paint? Is it a DIY setup?
Looks to be that way. Too much $$ for required work. IMO if your going to open up your headlights for that much, just do a retrofit. You can add all the LED's you want.

I like them but yeah I would probably opt NOT to have the LED strip as a side marker....rather have them on the lower bumper like for LED daytime running lights. The LED strip in the headlight assembly is only reserved for Audis

these lights are done professionally by that one shop based out of NY, no?
these shops charges an arm/leg to do custom work which i think is ridiculous, so i will be DIYing my set when the time comes.
i'm saving up for coilover installation atm, so maybe later down the road...

Inspiration and Too_Slow have done many successful retro's for 4 and 4.5 gens. From what I've read starting with the 4th gen, Nissan's headlamps are permasealed and require more effort to open. Far from impossible, just more tedious.

My fear, which is everyones fear, is melting it. I hear the best thing to do is low temp. for a much longer period of time. I use to bake open 3rd Gen headlights and maaaaan those things were cake!

More or less. Or a heat gun and work one area at a time and as you open it up take a knife and cut the epoxy.
I melted the lens on one of my lights but I was stupid and didn't pay attention. I turned off the oven but the residual heat got to it because I left it in there for too long. I was busy. I shouldn't have tried to multitask opening the headlights lol. You need a lot patience!
