You guys need to know when to accept some new ideas. Its sad when you see the silver and black on the body and bumper and that gives you the right to pass judgment on the whole car!

Ya they are hood pins. Flame on!!

I hope those aren't the pvc leds. I did this awhile ago. really wasn't a hit.

I did have great success with them on the tails copying the skyline style but so far the technology on most strip lights suck.

Good luck I hope they last.

The LED can be turned off and then its just the regular lights. He also painted the inside housing Apex silver which looks sweet in the day light. Then he added the 2nd projector in place of the foglights. You really have to see them in person! No camera can show how good they really look in person! As for the two tone paint i got board of seeing the same old stuff... I think you all are brain washed into thinking your cars have to be one color. I have NOT ran into anyone who has not liked it in person. Its different but i like it thats all that counts To each there own!


Besides i race auto cross i dont want to spend $400 to get a bumper painted apex silver every time i hit a cone.

I had alot of people at the car show asking about the headlights and who had done them for me. Once again never running into someone who had anything bad to say about the two tone or the headlights! So flame on you all hate to see rice but your all driving it right now!

Thanks again Nic i cant wait for the EVO X headlights come back!

Cool thing about the headlights is that they can be changed, The only reason he went with the blue is its what he had on hand and he only had 2 days before a car show i enterd my car into in ND. Nic is going to change them out to white so i can drive around with them on. He has unlimited solutions, Demon eyes, Halo mods, Painting to match the car color down to a tee. What ever color you would like! I have to give him props he put his work on my car. And he worked 2 days straight to get them done for me. I dont have ALOT of cash due to car payments and rent so my mods resemble what i can afford! I hit a cone at 52mph in Auto cross and allmost broke my bumper in half. So its easy to paint gloss black and fiber glass it back together myself if its breaks. It was flat black without the graphics on the door for the longest time! I love evos and i know none of you are trying be harsh about the layout of my car. But its what i put my sole into. So just remember im not here to persuade you into doing the same . Just wait 2 more years and you will change your mind about my choice of car layout when its finished!


Thanks for all the posts, but this is not about me its about Nic and his work with headlights. I really do think you all would be imressed with his work and should
PM him about some ideas!























I know your going to like this one!!!!
