I have been tring to make a decision for the last month if I should go with a projector style headlight, or just get some eyelids to put my existing TYC headlights. ..... I guess I should do a poll question for this...
These are the two best pics that I have at this time.. If someone wants to photochop a eyelids on either the S-style or the other is fine by me..

I don't know if black projectors would work as well as the silver ones when using eyelids. Anyone have a pic of a black/slate car with that setup? I'd say go with the silver projectors so the eyelids show up better, but I voted the top choice.

That's good. You dont want your fender or tires getting ruined.

So 19's sounds like you are really loving the projectors idea.

I still don't see why a lot of people don't like the silver projectors.

I've been tossing it around for awhile... I was going to do the Retrofits, but I don't feel like spending 1200 bucks...

should I go with a carbon fiber style, fiberglass and color match, or vinyl????

I think that the silver / chrome just won't look good with my paint. If I had a lighter color,then maybe..

Color match them, don't add CF in random places, to me it looks silly. I'm not a big unpainted CF fan. Get some shorties and paint em to match :)

I think the TYC's are very fitting for your car. But black projectors would be nice as well.

I have a CF hood, that is colored matched partially, it might be an option...
