In that S2K conversion, it look cool, bit completely useless as far as lighting the road is concerned. The bottom of those headlights has to be flat, his are like \/. He will be lighting up both sides of the road, no beam in the middle. What a waste if you ask me. So much work, E-spec S2K lights with clear turns and can't see shiet at night.

Sorry Taras, new you'd flip when you saw those. At least he'll be able to get good illumination of the tree line on both sides of the road. Can you imagine, all of that cutting shaping and re-painting only to have a big monster gaping black hole in the middle of your beam pattern - right whare you need it the most. All for not - well the car looks pretty nice anyway - maybe it's only driven during the daytime......LOL

some conversions reminds me of failed genetic experiments in classic manga where they created a horrid monster instead of a super being. some are nice and clean tho :)

is it just me or do the golf lights look like they're not sitting right (looks like they're on a outward slant to me...) we'll get a cool \_/ cut off?

sure want to see some pics of the finished products tho!

cheers,

eugene
