Posted May 31, 201114 yr If I went ahead with it, I wouldn't tint it very dark, as I still want the lights to remain functional
May 31, 201114 yr I say do it man. And if you do go dark, just buy some LED's, that would keep the functionality still up to par my friend.
May 31, 201114 yr Author Yeah I actually ordered some hids and less from sharphid but it was taking a while and they said they had it in stock, etc so I just canceled order and haven't reordered the stuff yet
May 31, 201114 yr I'm gonna be honest.. The red/white offset of the lights looks great.. I'd keep it stock... It just looks more defined and sexier...
May 31, 201114 yr Author Im still undecided, sometimes I think stock looks cleaner while other times I like the blackness
June 1, 201114 yr yea i think blacked out lights look good on black cars.Plus u run the risk of gettin pulled over by a cop that has nothing better to do
June 1, 201114 yr What about the overlays? im not sure if they have it for your car, but the altimas its just tinted around the non-light part of the housing. It looks really nice. Worth checking into
June 1, 201114 yr Are your stock headlights reflector or projector? If its reflector I would not get a PNP kit like DDM etc.....you actually get less light output because reflector housings arent meant for HIDs. Since you canceled your order I would suggest a mini retro to D2S. I would tint the tails if it were me though. I think it looks good
June 1, 201114 yr Author Ill look into the overlays.Wish I could afford one man, shit cost too much, wasn't yours like 40k after giving the surgeon a bj?

June 1, 201114 yr I was looking at those pictures for like 5 minutes thinking, WTF is going on here?!?! Finally, my brain turned back on and I realized what was happening. I think the tinted tails look good. The stock ones just seem too bright for me with the color of the rest of the car. However, it's really a personal preference and tinted happens to be mine.

I would recommend Morimoto and TRS actually (which is where the pic came from I see) I am saving up for a Stage III Bi-Xenon kit ftw Edited June 1, 201114 yr by theluker69

Approximately how much are those?H1 and D2S theyre both complete kits. It is a tad expensive. I would reccomend D2S if possible just for the fact that you can purchase a higher quality bulb. Hidplanet has some info on those kits I would really really suggest you read if you are at all planning on doing a retrofit Edited June 1, 201114 yr by theluker69
June 1, 201114 yr I was thinking of modifying my headlight assembly down the road with "any" factory HID glass... I don't have issues modifying/cutting the headlight assembly.. Might get one from a junkyard and fitting the glass in and using the connect from my factory harness.. Trouble is I still have an issue where my low beam on the left side gets no power...
