I know you said you wanna do it yourself but for the record, I sent off my (evo) headlights to Lightwerkz, yes they are expensive but the quality is INSANE.

A retrofit is pretty straight forward... It makes sense that they might mistake a good job as their own, not like they do anything differently than you or I would, they just back it up with a warranty, and that's what you pay for.

my whole deal cost $1300. i went from stock ugly horrible halogen to blacked out TSX retrofit, so pretty much the most expensive route other than s2k + angel eyes n stuff... if you just wanna black yours out i say definitely do it yourself.

The only b!tchon part dependimg what projector .shroud your gonna use, is properly aiming the light beam uaing the 25foot rule of thumb My first projectors were with rx8 components which were pretty big and my second pair is woth s2k parts which i gotta just aim it .

Who the crap is Koji, and why have we named headlights after him?
