played out???

I have been thinking lately about projector headlights. I really kind of like the way they look. I was wondering is the light projection that much better than the oem's. I was thinking about getting some but I don't know if they are getting or already are played out. I mean I know it is my ride and all, but just wanted some feedback.

Well, there are two Preludes in my town with Projectors, one with JDM's.

I have been thinking about JDM black housing projectors. That is a ton of grip for lights. Like another set of wheels. I think that's why I'm not doing it as quickly as other mods. If you do it...... I will give you props. As long as you post pictures.

I say spend a little more and get the JDMs, they are well worth it and IMO look way better than projectors.

slp mode - Si4WS has JDM Headlights on his car in his sig....

I have heard that the projectors produce less light than stock, and make night driving difficult.

It's all about the JDM one piece h/l's...Those are one of the few items that will never-ever be played out for our cars!!!

Devoe,
Best looking projectors on 4th gen I've seen. The black color and the tinted corner lights make the look.

You can get a used set of 1 piece JDM's for anywhere from 300 + up, try Ebay. One set just sold for about 290.00 (didn't meet the kids reserve though)

Your projectors are the first set that I have actually liked on a car, IMO the 1 piece's are much better though

So you like the way I tinted the corners? I just could not afford the JDM's at the time. I still think the black JDM's look the best. I just had to do what I could afford. Anyway, thanks for the props!

Hey Devoe! Props man looks pretty clean. I plan on shaving my deck lid also. If I could just get off topic for a second please. What body kit is that? I like it, it is not overdone.
