Headlight mods?
 
Is there any place in the bay area that does headlight mods?

vipor 01-22-2010 10:36 AM

pretty much every company that does headlight mods will ship

Ah thanks!
I was just trying to find a local place so I don't have to go thru all the hassle shipping it haha
if there isn't Id just send it off to get it done xP

vipor 01-22-2010 10:40 AM

i'm sure they can charge you for a core and credit you once they receive your stock lights and they're inspected. it's really the only way to do it.

keep in mind the core will be more than the work

Calvin 01-22-2010 10:46 AM

Yeah I'll probably find time and take my car to MR works if possible so they can do it. San Diego is around 5 hrs away I believe

vipor 01-22-2010 10:49 AM

just take the long way, enjoy it :tup::driving:

Calvin 01-22-2010 10:51 AM

Haha yah
just didn't want to not have my headlights in my car for a couple days cause of the shipping process xP
I rather get it done on the spot and I love driving this car lol so a 10hrs roundtrip sounds fun

coaster 01-22-2010 04:03 PM

I'm interested also. If you guys find out anything, please let me know. Thanks.

shabarivas 01-22-2010 04:10 PM

why dont you just do it yourself? its easy enough unless you want a million LEDs everywhere

209Z 01-27-2010 02:17 PM

only bad part is if u make a mistake that messes up your headlights..then a big chunk of change has to come out of your pocket to get it fixed or replaced =[

hey calvin ill go with u to get my car done as well in so cal. Let me know :happydance:

tolldog 02-09-2010 02:07 PM

Has anybody done something similar with the JDM rear lights? I think the large clear area with a smoked back would look great in both the front and back of the car.

Also, are there any options for the center brake lights? Is it only a red plastic lens or are their red led/clear plastic kits for that as well?

yeah, i haven't seen your car ever since that one week, everytime i walked by the parking lot. lol,
how much did you pay for HKS? lmao i'm so jealous right now.
school refunded me some money, parents letting me use it for myself was debating on upgrading my exhaust, intakes, etc. but again i'm not sure whether i want to keep this car or not it'd be a waste if i don't keep it lol.

well, it really depends on urself, personally ill go for the manual, but again, u'll lose money if u trade in. u kno the moded 335 in our school? hes my frd, his 335 is AT, but wen i tried it one time, i gotta say its more powerful than mine, n he tracks sometime. so AT can response well to the mods, too. its really up to u. i gotta the HKS for 1900+ but labor is kinda expensive, i'll def tell u how it goes after i get my car back. hopefully it'll help u to make a decision. btw, did u find any headlight mods in bay area? wanna go together next month? hahaa

haha i know the AT is fine it's just manual is much more fun drivng, but again the paddle shifters are fun too, haha.
well, i'm like 80% up for gettin mods just that 20% of trading in is killing me but again the fact of losing money! lol. oh well probably just mod this up anyways i got an aftermarket stereo installed since i didn't get the touring package -_- lol.
nah i wasn't able to find any headlight mods in the bay area;\ but i was going to get my taillights blacked out next week at Omega Tintwerks in pleasanton/dublin where i got my windows tinted. well, my plan was going to MR works during the summer, or something. when are you going next month? during spring break?
did u buy your HKS off the forum? well, for me i just gotta be sure about what i want first for mods, the labor part i don't think it'll matter much since my dad has friends that owns shops that may install em for me, for cheaper HOPEFULLY.

this your first yr at UOP?

I didnt get my HKS on the forum, they're even cheaper on the forum, however i dun have any frds in shop who can install them for me, so i decided to get them at the shop, so they make sure everything works as well. I was thinkin abt blackout my tail lights,too. but not sure yet, my window is not even tinted yet : ( hahaa u kno wat, wen i just bought my car, many frds told me they saw me on the street while i was workin in library, i knew that was u hahaa. i just called ZCG, they can have my car ready by tuesday, i guess we gotta meet up next week lol btw i usually go to hayward every weekend, i kno thats where u bought it hahahaa

I am always driving around stockton. I know a lot of the people around these areas.I am down to take a trip to get headlights done. My bday is march 13 soo yea theres a present for me. I dont like the prices of ZCG because its wayyy expensive..they do great work just alittle bit on the expensive side. I got GR+ stance Coilovers almost paid off 400 to go. All my trims and wheels r done powdercoated/painted satin black.

wheels/Center Caps/Door Handles/Front Valence/Rear Valence. Thinking about roof as well and maybe mirrors.
Again my Z is a PG.
