custom headlight, 1st gen talon

ZSPTurbo · 10-30-2002, 03:48 PM

Im considering getting a first gen awd talon, but my only problem is how ugly the front half is.... I'd like to get a front bumper, but I cant find any decent ones.... there is one that I remember, called something drift, but I can search for that later.
anyways, the point is, how much would it cost to get some custom headlights. if I get a 90-91, I know already what I would do in the pop up section,and how much that would cost. but the lower part, I would like to get a glass cover, to replace the plastic, how much would that cost?
for the 92-94 I would like to get once again glass covers, and then bmw style headligts behind (2 circulars, with angel eyes). I realize that they wouldnt be the full circle, but how much would that cost to get them?

I'd like to know what you'd do with the popup headlights!

I haven't seen any bumpers that I like more than the one on the GSX...

ditto...if you think a car is ugly, then why would you buy it in the first place? Buy something you don't think has a ugly front end....Maybe DSM isn't the way to go for you? Have you looked into hondas or acuras?

yuup. and also, your comment about honda/acuras, atleast in my eyes, shows your immaturity, because as much as the ricers like them, they still can be fast cars. my cousin had a streetable 11 second civic.

anyways, in the popups, Im getting a glass cover, and either a hid/xenon bulb.

your getting a glass cover and a hid/xenon bulb....riggggght

I would love to watch that GLASS COVER burst because of heat dissipation. How do you intend to seal this GLASS COVER? You gonna use aquarium silicone? Is this GLASS COVER gonna be water tight? You may want to make sure it is because you'll be wasting lots of money on true HID or xenon bulbs. Where do you intend to buy ballasts for the HID's at? Or are you just gonna attempt to hook them up to your stock 12 volt system. Oh wait...you don't even have a car yet.

p.s. again...you don't even have a car yet, so why are you thinking about mods???? Get the car, then come talk to me about your future mods.

Don't talk to me about fast hondas or acuras. Look through this thread: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/show...threadid=17016 :xnuts:

If/Whenever you get a 1G keep us posted on the headlights, cause I'm sure if it looks good there'd be plenty of people interested in knowing what you did.

That was the more politically correct way of saying what I said.
