No comment on the head light mod,.. I wonder why??

It's actually a very simple mod. If you guys really want to do the mod, first buy the Hella 90mm modules, then contact me so that I could tell you how to put everything together once you have the parts in your hands.

Others have asked me if I would get this headlight setup reproduced for them. We'll see.

I like the gold ones, the 5-spokes are nice but the colour and depth is still undecided for me. If the fronts weren't as deep they would probably look nicer. Very tucked though.

+24 in front and +20 in the rear

BTW, there is a wheel fitment and question thread.

First, to make your car fit the wheels, you're gonna have to roll all of your fenders. Now, if I'm gonna fit 17x9+24 and 17x10+20 on my car, this is what I'd do:

I like my cars slammed, closing the fender gap as much as possible:
front - 225/45-17
rear - 255/40-17


otherwise, if to play it safe:
front - 245/45-17
rear - 275/40-17
and you're car height will have to be like this so that your tires don't hit the fender: (Thanks, Mike, aka SupraA70 in advance for usage of your pic)

Art is never pratical, and this car is art.
I love how low it is and with those gold rims :love:

I also like the headlights a lot. Do you still have low and high beams?

Thanks! Practicality was low priority.

Low beam is on the outside, high beam on the inside.

Alright, that means im going to be seriously looking in to this conversion.
Send me a PM if you do a write up on it or I'll send you one once I gather parts. And I'll stop cluttering this thread lol.
