OEM 08-10 headlights are best. All the rest tend to look.... bad, cheesy, trying too hard, etc.

 

Then there really isnt much out there in terms of good quality headlights unless you retrofit

 

O_o?

There are plenty of awesome headlights out there, including the ones I have on now, just wanted to know if you guys knew of some that matched better.

 

How long have you had these on? Many of the aftermarket ones fog up, the CCFL goes bad doesn't work anymore. Not saying this will happen to you, but from being on the forums ive found alot of users stick to OEM for quality and then retro fit them to what they want.

 

Most aftermarket headlights look kinda cool, but are poor performers! What do you want from the headlights, looks or performance?

Here's a thread on my Depo/Eagle Eye OE 08'+ headlights.

 

I guess we are thinking on different levels... there is a difference between 'this looks neat' and 'my car is simple but epic.'

The problem with headlight mods in general though is the issues mentioned by others here, performance.

 

no headlights other than OEM or an OEM retrofit are good...most that come with LEDs or halos have them burn our very very quick and as some have stated, the lenses/projectors on the aftermarket lights suck. so the question is, do you want to look cool and not see well or see well and not look so aftermarket-ish?

 

there is so much going on there.... i don't quite know what to think.

 

 

Headlights? Concentrate on adding lambo doors and a huge rear wing to complete the Ricer look.

 

that thing is boosted? I don't see an FMIC anywhere in those pics. And it's beyond flashy. Honest opinion it looks like you went to pep boys, bought wheels and other ish and then kept stock ride height and went for an evo look with a cheap billet grill.

Thats my honest 100% opinion.

 

^^agreed...i was wondering about boost as well since i cant see an intercooler either

 

Shouldn't title your thread with the word "Opinion" in it...

Then after people say what think...You get "Sensitive Nancy" about it...LoL


Yea the Fog lights, upper grill, wheels, headlights, hood & windshield decal look Horrible.

 

He's made this tC his own.. whatever it is that was done.... time was taken on it. It just exists in the wrong decade.

As for the intercooler, its obvious he has a top mount intercooler, ala STi. =)

 

300 hp out of the supercharger? herm.

im in agreement with everyone else that said just get a retrofit or oem 08+. ive owned oem and aftermarket projectors for a few different cars, and nothing aftermarket even compares.

anywho, since you already had them, didnt like them and dont want them, these headlights should match up pretty well with the rest of the theme, including matching up with the chrome tails nicely.

 

im not trying to call you a liar but if thats lowered, i may need glasses! also, 300hp from the TRD charger seems a little much

 

this ^

Proof of it all please.

 

Im starting to think he doesnt know his own suspension. 'Coilovers & springs' ?

Not trying to be mean

 

Trd coilovers and springs? must be new. lol But 300 hp on the supercharger, what other mods did you do to reach this?
