Default sonar projector headlight fitment?

i just installed my new headlights and the stock ones fit better. the gaps from the body to the headlight seemed closer with the stock ones. say you were looking at the front of the car and looking at the drivers side headlight, the gap on the lower right corner of the headilght was closer the bumper with the stocker. i know i got it in right because how could you put it in wrong? has anyone else noticed this? is it normal? thanks

That's normal. Unfortunately aftermarket parts don't always fit like OEM. If OEM parts fit like that, noone would buy the car.

atomic street from ebay. they seem to be nice quality for 130.00. i tried to reseal them before i put them in as much as i could, i put silicone around the housing (as much as i could) to help out so they dont fog up. i also added a black jdm style grill off ebay also it looks pretty good i think.[img][/img]
