Dont bother with HIDs.

From Jan 1st 2012 HID's will require auto levellers and headlight washers to pass the MOT. They say it will be rolled out across the EU by that date too.

Good, all they do is blind everyone else on the road! And they look shite on older cars.

As long as they aren't stupid blue or purple 6-12K, they look fine.

I've had them on my E30s and they look spot on and I can actually see where I'm going with them!
Suppose the fact they have projector lamps make then more acceptable though and headlamp washers.

Dam you could have said for a 180sx before you made the poll. i voted yes. but maybe in some nice new Bmw or sumting Posh, but not in a Jap car.. there gone a bit old now i think.....

Is the bumper fitted properly there?? might need to check out the top brackets to reduce that panel gap, common on 180's

suislide

11-04-11, 16:48
