Take a look at different members' sig pics too - you may find ideas you like that way.

do a facelift headlight conversion. worth double the money after you see the finished product. clear or black out sidemarkers. and eventually wheels/ drop. i'd go wheels first so you can ballpark whether or not your control arms would handle a drop without the need for spacers of course.

oh and btw, if you get HIDs you'll not only stand out but you'll **** people off at night.

HID color is a huge topic of discussion. Many have no issue with using 10K while others argue you lose quality of the light.

I run 4500K which produces a nice clear white light that retains the stock look. I personally think that anything higher than 4500K is annoying.

I run 6000k and feel that it gives a richer, "thicker" light on the road than my prior 4300k and 5000k kits. A 10,000k kit absolutely loses output (look up HID luminosity charts to see the comparative outputs of the various HID colors). Also it puts a blue light on the road, which is not a good color for visibility. It washes out much closer to the car than a lower k color will.
