Well the Fit looks like crap in general, so it's not anything to go off of in my opinion.

agreed i just think that the corvettes nose and headlights look alot different then our cars. plus the fits the only car i ever see around here thats headlights are colored like that. i like the way it looks but dont want to rice my car out. plus the projector lights are way expensive and then cracking them open and getting it painted is something that worries me if i dont like how it looks when its mounted on the car.

ok it took me almost two weeks to get the housing out. (NO JOKE!!!) well granted i took my time. but its done!!! I sanded it down with some 600 grit, and spayed it with promoter. next thing is the paint, I think its going to look really good, especially with Laser blue and clear paint. ill post pics after i paint them.
