Very nice! Have you driven at night with them yet? Any noticeable difference in the high or low beam patterns? You'll need to post after you've been running with them for a couple of months - I'm interested in how they're going to stand up to rain and assorted road 'grunge' that smacks against them.

They look great Alan! So does your paint job... was this after a wash and polish? Are you going to put on some headlight protectors, like that 3M vinyl stuff?

already had the 3M protectors on, and then removed them. this is the second time i've tried them (on WRX before) and they looked like crap. the WRX's were really hard to do - complex, round, curved headlight. the SVX's went on without all the bubbles, but they weren't CLEAR. they were all hazy-looking. i've wasted enough money on them

i'll just keep after the lights with the plastic polish.

the Silverstar bulbs are A W E S O M E !!!!! haven't really drove at night yet. they still need to have the height adjusted.

I'm still not down with how they clash with the sides.

They look great, and so does the car! What is the color of it? Looks like a brown in the pics.

that is a rare factory color, Metallic Dung Brown.
i think its just reflections from my house colors (and a poor digital camera). its actually Ebony Pearl.

The ebony pearl has a sort of brown reflection to it in the right light...but i think the pics look pretty black.

The lights look good. Too bad my clear lenses corners are going so poorly....they'd look good together :-)

Very nice, I hope to be doing the same thing to mine soon. The hood emblem is a touch.

Allan - I hope that a giant dung beatle doesn't try to roll your car down the road when you aren't lookin'
