'00-up Sentra Headlight swap?

Has anyone tried this? I tried the search function already,but no results. I like the one-piece head/cornerlights. With them installed it would probably be easier to mate a different front bumper to the Max. I was thinking that it shouldn't be too hard except some fender work. Please no flames.

Yeah, flames on the fenders would look bad.

Ive always wondered why people would swap headlights and taillights and stuff. I always thought it was ridiculous, esp the supra tails, so played out, now people (ricers) are using S2000 lights and taillights. Horrible.

Why do people try to make their car look like another?!?

Sentra 00+ headlights.. if it's got H-4 bulbs and housing.. and it's cheaper than the Cefiro one piece headlights.. then it's worth a try

How much are Cefiro one pieces?? The Cefiros though would just fit right in, no? The sentras would definately require some modfication. Also, if you get ANY sentra lights, it's HAVE to be the 2K2 Spec-V smoked lenses. Hot!

My girls got a 2k1 sentra the headlights are 9007's and the are like 30 times brighter than ours. As far as swapping them i'd love to for the brightness but the look would be a bit odd. They are WAY better headlight then ours though i have to give them that.

Nah, i think it might be a J-spec or E-spec, corret me if im wrong though.

They usually always have something different than A-spec models
