I have never been a fan of the projectors, plan on doing a H.I.D. conversion anyway, they make the ones that just plug into the stock bulbs, putting the ballast between the “bulb” and old socket.

Its different, thats for sure. Perhaps if it were painted to match the colour of the car? Any photoshop gurus here?

if that is a BE/BH it's not the hood of a BE/BH is it?
it looks like a BD/BG.
and if that's true, how much did it cost to get those lights?
and how hard was it to transfer them over to lhd from rhd.
thanks

Why no cover over these? It would help to smooth the looks and air flow as well. Can you imagine all the bugs and rocks that would hit them in the current state?

Good point Ciper, maybe that is what is skewing the look for me, the WRX projectors have the covers and don’t look half bad.

What kind of cover are you talking about? I have never seen a cover on the WRX Prodrives. I must have missed it. I have the Morrets(no covers) and have not had an problems with rocks, ect. I would love a clear cover for them. Jacob Horn posted a thread a while back with pictures of a cover for the Morrets.

I think he's talking about the JDM WRX headlights which are projectors IIRC.

if not these lights, something almost identical. i want lights like this, that separate the bulbs like that. they look so sweet, kind of a JDM look in a way. also, tail lights. gotta step that up and change things a bit. anyone know where there are some different tail lights for a BD
