    purely aesthetic... but i think they look sweet... lost the HID effect though... headlights look like regular lights

    i definitely plan to powder coat them in the future... im trying to decide what shade of 'dark' i should go with... like gloss black, gunmetal, etc... i'll do that when:
    1) i am back in atlanta
    2) someone with an extra set of rims is nice enough to lend me the set for a week or 2 (while mine get powder coated)
    3) maybe i will wait till the re070s wear out so i need to unmount them anyway

    probably gonna get em done today... subaru of dallas (SOD from now on) stocks them... i figured i'd get them to install them since i am a retard when it comes to precision of any sort... they are open until 7pm i think so i need to see if i can make it there at a decent time after work

    everything else is fine here... this place is HOT as hell... low humidity is good though

    Looks really good man. So even though you lost the HID effect, do you still like the front headlight covers. I would not want to lose the brightness of the HIDs.

    well, the headlights are still bright enough to see fine at night... however the light is yellowish, not white anymore

    i love the back, but i think the front is a little too much. maybe down the road we'll crack open the lamps and paint the inside so you can keep the hid's. but it still looks mean. are you going to keep the subaru badge in the front?

    Looks good! My ex had a similar look on her mustang, her headlight covers were a little darker, we'd have to drive around with the high beams on in order to see at night.

    you should get a smoked license plate frame also.

    Can't you just have circles cut out where the HID bulbs shine through?

    removing the full bulge might be too much. i kinda like the way brian did round cut outs.
