NSX headlight conversation

it was just an add-on piece for the plates, if i recall..
it's the reflection that brings out the two horizontal bars that makes it look slightly different..

yeah, bondie, i bet with custom fiberglass bezel that surrounds the lights entirely, it'll look sick. 
a brief update on my NSX headlight install- it's WAY more work than i anticipated! i cut out section of the core support that needed to go, and A CRAPLOAD of material needs to be removed from the headlight buckets. luckly, i have spares if i screw it up.
i still can't get the one side i'm working on to fit properly, and i've removed a ton of material from the car. this is proving to be quite the project. no pics though, heh.

haha, devin- you mean the pre '89 blinker covers? i suppose if enough interest were generated that i could lend mine to Kevin M. to get replicas made, even if it does make mine that much less rare.
will- nice sig, haha!

^ tek- they're nice, i read your writeup on them, but they're too low profile for me. haha. i think the NSX's are the perfect height. if only they fit easier!
devin- heh, as soon as i saw mine listed for sale, i jumped on it. i had never seen one for sale before mine, and have yet to see another since.

update: i'll be snapping some pics of my hacked up front end this week. the NSX project is a handful, most definatly NOT for the faint of heart.
you have to cut up the radiator support quite a bit. i plan on bracing it up again after the headlights are installed. i haven't actually made the last two cuts yet. i have to grow some real testicles.

Someone please let me know if this doesnt work on our cars for some reason but for about 100 dollars you can get a controller to lower your headlights any height you want, cant remember where i found the link at the moment but i heard alot of 240 guys use them.
EDIT, a quick google search turned up this, according to the ad it should work http://www.nlmotoring.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=4768

yeah, i plan on using a pivot controller for the lights. that's not my problem. the problem is physically getting the lights to fit in the car, while retaining the pop-up feature, as well as not looking like ass.
i should have some progress by next weekend.

I look forward to seing the finished nsx headlights.
A while ago i saw a 91 (i think) supra with 2000+ celica headlights on it on ebay. Did anyone else see that or have pics of it?
