Your best bet is to buy the sti lights, lhd or rhd...your choice, and buying an hid kit elsewhere from say www.worldoneperformance.com which retails anywhere from $300- $600. Shouldn't cost you more than $1500 for everything installed. Enjoy!

are any companies making any JDM-like headlights of quality??
I see so many different projector lights for other cars for around $2-300 bucks, but none for the subies.. somebody must be planning on making them...

Warning, those cheap lights aren't projectors-
Unless you absolutely have to have the JDM "look" you can get a set of Morettes, which are true projectors, for around $500-600.
Try to avoid the RHD lights because the pattern is wrong for the US where we drive on the right side of the road. Morettes are LHD, as are EDMs (European market version of the JDMs).

Based on your statement, I think you're confused. There ARE NO JDM HID lights for $900(new). Those are most likely non-HID lights. The JDM HID lights do retail for $2700. They look almost the same minus the HID lighting and the black plastic trim(non-HID) vs. the chrome black trim(HID).

Available STI Projector headlights:
JDM lights = Right Hand Drive (RHD) lights available in non-HID/HID
EDM lights = Left Hand Drive (LHD) lights available in non-HID only

Yes. Any true JDM stuff, being made for use in Japan, will be for RHD.

CC-B has GBs where you can get them pretty reasonably priced and shipped relatively quick.
