    Sorry about your car man. I knew something was wrong when I didn't see you on the freeway anymore. Good luck with everything. If you really want the VIS hood, I can help you out. Real real cheap.

    Yes, that was him. We were driving to the meet together along with another member. When we got to the meet, we were wondering where Redronin was since we were driving along with him, turns out he got into an accident. :(

    Nooo JDM headlights ---

    From what others have been saying, it's not a good thing to have headlights with a beam pattern that's basically incompatible with USA, drive-on-the-right roadways. Please stick with USDM headlights, and paint 'em if you want the JDM look.

    Style points are one thing, but shouldn't be achieved with a loss of functionality.

    I have the JDM headlights and there is "NO LOSS OF FUNCTIONALITY". So go and get'em cause you'll have what everyone is trying to copy.

    This is what you do....Go to a junkyard where a silver RSX got smashed up bad in the back and take the front clip and your car would look pimp as shit.......

    My point is that the JDM headlights' pattern would put too much glare to the oncoming drivers, and not as much light off the right side of the road. Hence the "loss of functionality".
