The new housings definitely look great, but if you do a lot of night driving in the dark (whereas in the city, my night driving really isn't that dark from all the street lights) I would recommend sticking with your stock housings.
Thanks for the straight forward review of the headlights. I'd really like a set but since I spend half my time in the dark.... go ahead and say it.... I guess I better stick with the factory headights... Guess I could always get a set of headlight covers for daytime use.

haha Ryan, I'm hoping to get everything done by June, but I'm moving in May so a lot of my expenses are going to be going to that so IDK if I'll get the paint job on the trunk / slp grille in time

New sig will come after I have everything completed and take my DSLR out for a good photoshoot. There's no point in busting out the good camera to take a picture before I even clay / wax this year!!!

Where did you find the Bermuda Black LED tail lights? I really like the look of those. How much did they run you?

IPCW (in pro car wear) makes them. You just have to look around for the best price... I think I got mine off ebay for $230/shipped

but they can get as expensive as $300

That looks really sweet, very nice job. The head and tail lights look really sharp. Can we expect a soundclip of that exhuast anytime soon???

You want something like this?

Here's a cold start:


It's really hard to get good sound clips of this while driving and such because it's really not a loud exhaust system. It looks mean, and sounds good, but at WOT I still kind of only hear my Intake haha
