Look what I got in the mail! =)

[EP3_DC5]

Just came in yesterday... JDM CTR headlights! These things look AWESOME!!!!! They are actually a little darker than I thought they would be! I love em! I might have to sell them though, because I need money for Falken Azenis for my RSX-S, since I decided to keep my Slipstreams and my 18s are too heavy for autoX.

Anyways here are a few pics.

[EP3_DC5]

No, they are the non-HID headlights, as the HID units are $1500...:eek:
I ordered these from Tornactive.

[Brettnyt]

Very nice!!!! I love the JDM headlights on all colors, excpet black... its just somethin about the tinted houses with the dark paint color that doesnt do it for me... Anyways, congrats! :D

[Joker]

Those are beautiful!!
Greg - who thinks you should keep them :)

[BlackNRedSi]

[TrippZ]

[XspeedSi02]

If you keep them I'll buy your stock headlights. PM me if you decide to sell your stock headlights. Thanks

[02TafWhtSi]

They look great! Can't wait to see em' on the car ;)

[EP3_DC5]

My girlfriend (Tansi on the board) just decided to keep them, but the stock ones are for sale now.

The color and depth depends on light. They are more smoked gray than black. Not quite black, not quite chrome..... Very weird, but looks classy.

[IceD out N CALI]

when you get out in the daylight they will look much lighter, yet when it is cloudy u can see the tint of the lights more

Dah well, we'll see how they look on the car. As long as there's a noticeable difference.......

[Accordexcpe95]

i wonder if i can find a spray paint like that color on the JDM headlights.. gotta go to auto parts shop tomorrow and check it out :)

[EP3_DC5]

it's kind of a "smoke" color......grayish-smoke is the best way to describe them.

I believe the JDM headlight is designed for RHD car...
so won't it blind the on coming traffic in a LHD country(US/Canada?)

[Suk02Si]

Yeah I heard it will blind traffic.

your ebaying your lights for around 240? I've seen them go for 100 bucks

That's why headlights are adjustable.

They are in perfect condition, and if someone sold theirs for $100, they are retarded, because they are worth much more than that.

[Civicvtec1ps]

i was bidding on used stock headlights on ebay yesterday. ended at 150 + shipping. i thought that was expensive so i stopped bidding at 120..

[kadafi]

I hope it can be be adjusted to the point where the light flares to the right hand side.

most reflector based housing has very narrow range for adjusting.
(i've tried it on my subaru impreza and broke it due to over adjusting.)

I have never purchased a set of JDM headlight for EP3 before....so pleaes correct me if I'm wrong about adjusting.

i thought that was only the case with the HID's ??

[EP3_DC5]

We are going to install the headlights right now, so any questions will be answered.

[EP3_DC5]

JDM vs. USDM headlights

[EP3_DC5]

On the car.......

[SmoothOperator]

Thanx, it's the lady's car though and she did half the install =)

[SmoothOperator]

Okay.....Nice one dudette!!

[EP3_DC5]

here are the pics of the beam pattern........in the rain however, cause it started raining last night.

[kadafi]

thanx for the pix, the is the 1st time i see the real beam pattern of a RHD ep3.

seems like the beam pattern is tilt little bit to the left(on coming traffic side), ....fortunately you are not running aftermarket HID...

Yeh, I know. My girlfriend wants wheels.......what can you do? We will get the JDM headlights at a later time, when one of us has the funds to do that. Some performance mods are due next though.

[Si_til_i_die]

How much was the cost... I NEED some of those... did you buy online?.. what site?

BTW.. they look sweet:p
