thanks man, yea they actually still work. i have the wires such that they only come on when the switch on the steering column is switched to headlights. (so instead of just turning on the corner lights i can just turn on the headlights) or both if i want. scroll a couple posts down from the original pictures and you can see them on.

What is the cost? Time?

To me most mods are not worth it unless you had to replace something because it broke.

But I do think these lights look very good.

Woooooow. You just made my day man.

Best. Looking. Headlights. Ever.

And I hope that you don't mod your car so other people notice it... seems a bit shallow. (hint)

Awesome work (all my friends agree), keep it up and don't let anyone get you down. It looks breathtaking.

P.S. Polish/AE your foglights or something to match. =)

Heh, well i've been out of the loop a bit, but i'm really happy how they turned out. lots of meticulous work on the shrouds and getting them to sit in the reflector part of the cefiero's. If anybody needs any help with projects they're working on (retrofit wise) send me a PM. This project got me really wanting to redo mine into cefiero's.

Grant, i should be free friday if you wanna try those changes i told you about.

I have seen a couple of retrofits now, but by far you have best looking one. Must have been a lot of work. I know you must be proud of your work and you wouldn't want someone to copy you, but is there any way your friend can set a kit similar to yours for me? How much would it be, I think I might have someone to install it since I'm not very good with electricity. Let me know. My e-mail is a97max5spd@msn.com Oh and about the HIDs, trust me people notice them, specially the cutoffs, and the headlights and projectors, anyone who has seen as Maxima before probably has noticed the headlights being divided from the corner lights. Have you tought about adding LEDs to your car on any of the lights?? Keep up the good work!!

Beautiful! I've got my Cefiros in a box, waiting for projectors/HIDs, which will be coming in early '06 - I'm just really worried at hacking up the front end.. Amazing job, though - seriously excellent.
