    nice score man!!! all i would do for now is throw in some 323/94 protege headlights until you can get a solid plan down for head lights.

    i haven't heard about the mirage having a criss cross beam, especially if installed to fit properly (involves a LOT OF CUTTING) plus those Ebay halo headlights are non-HID, they're just dual beam black housing. The HID retrofit for them is about $225 since it needs the headlight unit replaced.

    What about sanding down the headlight lense and do an HID retrofit? That's what im doing, but i'll be experiementing with vac forming for the headlight cover

      I love my jdm lights so much, and i would love to find some edm glass, but mad expensive.

      I may experiment with the retrofit, but not with my jdm's! maybe, maybe. What are you using for the projectors?

              Nah. I didn't need the fenders. I got this off of a 94 pro. I need a pass fender, but if i can't find a teal one, I dnt want it. I going to have to paint this hood some decent color before i even think to put it on the car.

                After opening up my old usdm headlights, and became very interested in my hid retrofit. I think imma get the ballast and bulbs from that site, and get some e55 bi-xenon projectors from eBay. Then i buy my dremel, and make my . . . and walla! Alot of people talk about it, but imma actually do it, taking a few months to acquire the parts and complete the project. I'm stoked.

                          As i did research, the more I found out, and the more i wanted the best from the get go. Orginally, I wanted the e55's. But once I added the clear zkw-r lenses, the fx-r were only $10 more. I bought the used matsu balast, 5000k bulbs, bi xenon harness, and d2s adapters for $310 shipped. And they all have a 1 year warranty. Buying used wouldn't suffice for the ~$40 I would be saving. Once i did this once, I don't planned on doing it again.

                            i'm glad you didn't decide to go used lol, i remember when you thought that one projector kit link i sent you was too expensive.

                            Glad to see quality has taken over man should be a sick outcome. Going to get everything lined up and ready for the lenses?

                                The lenses look fluted right in the middle. I don't want my projector beam to be scattered in away way whatso ever. I all ready put n my order for clear lenses. Good fid though.

                                I bet shipping is killer.

                                Some may be interested though.
