    Nice. I've actually been considering converting my plastic JDM headlights to worldspec ones cause the glass looks much better than faded plastic.

    Yeah my 6G had glass headlights and with some good H4 bulbs they were bright and produced a good beam. My 7G is just not the same. Even my 4G with semi-sealed beams is better!

    Yeah I have 6000K on my USDMs and they are much brighter tahn regular bulbs (of course) so whenever I get JDMs or World Specs I can only imagine how much better that will look. Go for the 6000's, any higher Kelvin the light output is actually less...dimmer than what you want

    if you've ever opened up a set of worldspec(and idk about the jdm)
    the bezzle inside is like a dark gunmetal/bronze color

    its not actually black.

    i opened my housings up on my car. then painted the bezzle matte black.
    it turned out quite well.

    looks 10x better by comparison.

    My lights arrived today. I am just checking out the lights. I am going to work with them this weekend. I don't plan on HIDs. I am thinking more on Syvania Silverstar Bulbs. I haven't gotten into it just yet. Do I need a JDM harness? Is there a sure fire way to Maguiver these lights into working? What all do I have to do?

    Decided to post an update to my JDM light install. The lights are in and they look great. Props to G-Spot for helping me with this. :D I used Silver Star bulbs. They are pretty darn bright.



    In case you're wondering, I am replacing a lot of panels that were banged up. :D
