New projectors installed

pain in the ass process of removing headlights on a 9th gen requires that you partially remove the bumper:


remember that movie face/off?

opinions?

I've been trying to decide whether I want to paint them to match the car or leave them black. I think I'm gonna paint em though. Would probably look better.

Looks much nicer than the stocks

man looking good. how much did u pay for it?

nice... i like it...

leave them black... they look nice..!!! really nice car btw.

thanks

kick ass ride, where'd u get them?

got em on ebay actually

Looks good man

not bad...

are those true projectors?

Outstanding!
It changes the frontal features for the better.
Congrats on a good upgrade.

Very nice, they look good in black.. not that they would look bad in blue..

love the look.. how is the quality? once had projectors and took them off.. i hope they make this year better.. do you know who the manufacture of those lights are?

They do look better than stock. Looks good!

[poo-poo alert]I still don't see the point, besides blinding oncoming traffic. I hate those sonsabiches! Projectors aren't even legal here.The beam patterns suck, IMO. Kinda like those posers who drive onroad with 130w offroad lights on all the time.

i like the angel eyes but really not a fan of projector lights....looks good tho, i could only imagine seeing your car behind me with those angel eyes...they look sick

the angel eyes got me.. me too, not a fan of projectors, but those do look sweet as hell, along with the new grill...

i say leave em black.. cause ya never know when u might just decide "hmmm, i think my car would like better such and such a color..." then u've got a situation...

but still, looks nice..

no defense, but they looked better in the dark. that housing looks cheap.

thanks for all the feedback guys. as for the questions - no im not sure who actually manufactures them. im not exactly sure what qualifies some projectors as "real" ones, so i dunno if these are or not. As for quality - they're not really much brighter than the stock ones were. Somewhat odd beam pattern though - hard to explain, at close range (like when im pulling into the garage), it almost looks like it's projecting the west coast choppers logo on the wall lol.

It's a purely aesthetic mod - no improvement or hindering in visibility or anything.

edit - here's a better daytime pic (though it is huge) - makes me kinda want to leave em black as many have suggested. I would like to know how they would look painted though.

i like it it makes the car look mysterious

that's nice...

That's MARVELOUS!!!

You got the projectors that has the housing for the turn signals! tell me, how did they look when the signal's on? is it bright enough?

They look good but I dont think that painting them would make a difference since you have a dark color IMO keep'em black

Yeah, leave them black.


I just found out angel eyes are illegal here too. :doh!

unfortunately they are not nearly as bright as I would like them to be. At night, they're fine. During the day though, the turn signals aren't very visible unless you're directly in front of the car. I've got silverstar Ambers in there now... prob gonna order some of the hyperwhite LED ones to make up. Shuold be fine after that.

I think it only has tha slight sense of cheapyness because the arent factory colored, get um painted man and it will definetly P-I-M-ppp

Maybe someone skilled in Photoshop can photoshop them up to match the car so he can really get an idea what they'd look like....

(Ok, now who's going to bell the cat?)

do the projectors replace the corner lights also? on a 99 corolla i mean

do they have the clear plastic cover or are they bare
