Show me your Headlights!

Hello, I am looking to buy headlights, but have no clue what to get. I am hoping many of you have different style headlights, so maybe I could get a clue on what route I should go.

Thanks!

just paint your 8 housing black. the jdm ones are expensive (comes bare) but nice, oem 9's are nice but some dont have the fog lights or hids like the 8's.

I just looked through all my pics, and i dont really have any good pics of my Headlights. I just took me 8's and Painted the housing black. Also, took the amber piece and blacked out the Sides of it, as well as the sides of the clear headlight housing. Gives the entire headlight a very Dark look. As well as my evo being black as well as having black eye brows on her, IMHO its the best looking way to go.

All depends on what color your evo is.

These are JDM OEM with chrome backing. These are OEM on the JDM IX wagon, sedans have a darker backing.

I personally like jdm evo8 mr headlights the best, but with the exchange rate how it is now... the price of these headlights are completely OUTRAGEOUS.

Your best best is probably to just paint your headlights yourself or pay someone to do them. If you have a 2003 then your already have HIDs so you are good on that. If not, you can also pay someone to do a hid projector retrofit.
