I'm sorry, I don't like it. Its not only a safety hazzard, but you don't have a black car, so it looks odd.

It might look good, but light output will be shit at best. you shoulda just cracked the headlights open and painted the housings black. would have looked better as well.

You think it looks great until your traffic ticket(s) price would exceed the value of the heads, fogs and grille!

Why not use

I'd assume it would be easier to remove then paint

Or just paint the inside of the heads black and smoke the reflector...

It would probably look better if the grill was different from the headlights. But the look you were going for, looks like you did a good job! =)

to a civic....

It doesnt look terrible, but thr risk of gettin pulled over is deffs not worth it.

I would have spent all that elbow grease on the engine that looks like dodo, instead of that. I think you missed the point when folks said don't do that. Maybe because most of us have been there, got tickets because of it. People try to improve visibility, you kill it on purpose? Makes no sense. Want that look? Do it right, bake the heads and paint the inside. It will look cleaner and visibility wont be butchered, plus you'll be street legal again. Another thing to strongly think about is to trade the G in for a Civic, your mod choices tells me that you might be a perfect Honda owner, just my opinion though.

Well,I am going to see how it looks with a lip.If it looks bad then I am going to get the smoked JDM Heads and also,I hate the Ny plates too.They look way too old school.Hondas are not for me I don't like them too small for me imagine a 6' feet guy walking outta a 2 door civic -__-

Lol I do see the point due to the headlights being blacked out the Light won't come out and I wouldn't be able to see nothing at night time.But due to I had the 4000k they were too bright

RAZ_76
11-01-2010, 03:12 PM
Whatever, I had 4K and it's still was not bright enough.

If you like it then that is all that matters, but you will change it later on down the road. Personally I wouldn't have went that dark.

It looks good but I never would have done that because it lowers your visibility at night.

Dominicano
11-02-2010, 10:05 AM
lol explains why your s/n is malcriao

lol thats would explain it lol

one option i did which did not kill much of the output was using perforated vinyl on the headlights 90 percent of the light still shined through but the lens looked darker than normal . Never had a problem with it when I was in NY.

Malcriaoxx
11-02-2010, 02:34 PM
Damnnnn the perforated vinyl is nice ass damn idea.where the hell you been hiding dominicano with that idea lol.
Also in Nyc Cops dunt bother with that.They do bother the crap outta you when it comes with the HIDs...If its too bright they will stop you.

Besides I am going to rewire the foglights so they could turn on independent.

I shared that info long time ago lol here what my car looked like with it

the only downside its peels off easily a few months of outside element and washing the car the glue wears off but no residue is left.

11-03-2010, 07:16 AM
Yeah,Idk I am going to see because I am going to buy a carbon fiber hood soon and modify and install the lip on friday.Also Dremel the fins off the grille and put mesh.If it look bad then I am going to buy the black JDM heads.

O yeah I also did the backlights *LOOK*

those are way to dark IMO, they are to way dark, the insuracne company may not cover you in a rear end collision

I pity you.



Please by no means, make a thread on the graveyard forum that you got rear ended because the other car couldn't see your taillights and cry on the forum that insurance company couldn't pay out the insurance claim. By all means, please make a thread on why the cop pulled you over for tinted headlights so you can start your little spiel of why you had to pay $$$ in fines when you could got blackened heads on ebay for the same price on the "Got Ticket?" forum.

I pity you. Normal people would find better ways for them and the safety for the other drivers. Safety is an issue we all have to abide by. By comprimising safety you are endangering lives around you. It has little to do on how "made tyte" or "fly" your car may look. Look around, how many other Galants you see on TGC that has your setup? No, scratch that. How many Galants you see that used to have your setup? Less to none? But you'll probably disregard it after several people, some of them by experience, asking you to be careful of what you put into. But because you assume it's your car and your money you have the power to do whatever you feel like and disregard anything what they say regardless if it's safety or not. There are no haters here and definitely no hate brewing in this thread, we're just trying to help you prevent the headaches you're about to cause by doing all this. But you'll probably ignore that also. So go on ahead, you've already made a fool of yourself here and pretty much have little to no shot in conversing with the other TGCNY members. I pity you, there's always one black sheep amongst every chapter you just nominated yourself. Enjoy your build. Kthanxbai!

x3! Honestly, I am on NY roads too, so its not just your safety you're killing its mine, my fiancees, my parents, my brothers, my sisters, my nieces and nephews safety too. If you feel like hurting yourself that is your choice, but there are other people that can be hurt cause you thought your beige car looked good with black lights which are illegal for a reason.

x50 haha, i have to say way to think about others before you mod, especially on this. Argue and deny us but it is proven, when you get nailed cause somebody cant see you from your heads, or the cant tell you are slowing down cause of you blacked out tails dont come bitch to us like g spot said. there is a reason the nightshades can say no more than 3 coats i did 2 very light coats just enough to take the edge off the redness, you can still see the tails,not just the black film. and blacked out light went out awhile ago get with the times. The only people that have blacked out are dumbasses who think its cool.

Actually it aint that dark I took the picture in the dark and the car off,I am going to take a better picture in the dark and the car on xD.if it was that dark as you call it you know how many tickets I would have,I live in fordham in the Bx and their is police in every corner.

Also,G spot I know ya are all telling me this for a reason and thanks for watching out for me because some people would just shake their head and keep on going.I decided in buying blacked bezel JDM Heads,soo anybody PM me.

^^Good choice. I'm not a fan at all of heads and tails completely blacked out. I live in NY also and a cop would pull u over for tinted tails/heads before HIDs. You can make your car look clean with very little effort. Its been done on here and you'll be happy with the results and money saved on stupid tickets. Dont hide your HIDs! They look great. Happy Modding!

Taillights are not just for braking. They have built in reflectors so when cars shine their headlights on your tails, the red is reflected back.

You ever see guys in parachute pants and go "what the heck is this guy thinking"? Well thats what we're all thinking.

It is your car so if you feel proud of it, thats all that matters.

Also next is a loud ass annoying muffler, and 5% tints in all my windows even the front one.....LOL am joking

On the way home from pep boys we passed a Racoon about as big as a full pit. his body was still plump and full but his head was popped like a ketchup packet. i could see one of his eyebals up against the side of the car tire directly across from it and the spread pattern it left. That has nothing to do with this thread. unless you consider i was thinking of spraying the sun with blackout spray so i wouldnt have seen the coon. but besides that. If you know your pics make it look like its to damn dark. STOP posting pics that you know people are gonna get on you about. i feel like you are trying to get attention right now. but what do i know about people begging for attent. guess ill go tend to the baby trowing things at me and calling me gada gada when he knows my name id dada dada and i hate when he throws things................................

Dude look, you are not the first to do this dumb mod. I have and many other have too. So you can't come here and say that it's not too dark. That's like trying to sell bullshit to a bullshitter, you know what I mean?? I hope that you don't start a thread when you get rear ended. I guarantee you money that already you have had close calls. I had my tails lighter then that and I had close calls right away, and after that, I went back to stock. It looked cool but it was not worth getting my car trashed. Even stock tail lights are hard to see during the day when the sun shines directly behind your car, imagine tinted ones. You keep living in this denial world but I know that you're an idiot.
