It took about 8 hours total of grinding and messing with the weather stripping but finally got them how I want them. only about 1/4 to 1/2 inch gap on the corners that I put the weatherstripping on. I took my stock light bults out and put them in the cefiros. Got new corner bults and the daytime bulbs but didn't hook up the daytime connecter yet. Going to save that for this weekend. I got the cefiros off ebay for 230 or 240 shipped I forget. They shipped from taiwan and came really fast, even had chinese newspaper in the box, and smelled of a cheap fleamarket filled the room as I opened the box haha.
If anyone needs a hand installing these on their 4rth gen I can help. I got pretty good at it. 80% of the time I was working on the one side experimenting with the fitment. Then once I saw how it had to be the other side was cake.
Heres some pics I took with my cellphone.

yeah that filefactory **** is lame. the wait is forever. but the car looks hot. i like the flow of the black and the smoked lights. 8 hours though? damn dude i felt funny about spending 5 on mine, then again i have some fitment **** i need to square with, but looks good 
Yea. Doing my UDP took about 4 hours :O
When I'm treading uncharted waters I like to take my time and try really hard not to *** stuff up. Slow and steady man...
These are the first pictures I took with my cell phone that I sent to my computer. Damn I'm impressed with the quality, not bad.
A problem I have though at night if I don't have my fog lights on its hard to see.. The lights shoot off what little light they give off to the sides a lot, and in the middle they give off next to no light at all? Whats with that? Bulbs or something else?

I saw some Cefiros on a car this weekend...i dunno the Cefiros didn't line up w/ the fender and it looked odd.
Can you post some close-ups? Cefiro's look great from afar, the close-ups tell a different story.

hey man the fitment looks good. what else did you grind down besides that tab that separates the corner light. Im trying to get min to fit a little better on the sides.

Trial and error man. Put them in and look and see what they hit. There is a lot of grinding/cutting involved, but it WILL fit decently.Originally Posted by NCSU_MAX

I think I did a better job then most on the fitment of these ceferis on 4rth gens at least from what I have seen. The gap that everyone will have no matter what on mine is very small. Just make sure you put touch up paint or some kind of paint on the areas you grind/cut so it doesn't rust too fast. Thats another reason it took me so long to do.
I cut my parts the way the write up stated and do not have a fitment as good as yours. I wonder if it's because mine is a 95??? I thought the only difference was the grill not the parts behind it....Please help if you can, did you do the cuts exactly like the write up?

Man eight hours is quite a bit of time. Where you able to get the to align properly in the end. I am interested in this lights, but not sure if i have the patience or time to install them.
NCSU_MAX: I like what you have done with your headlights, how did you put those together?

the look good man...i like them a lot. i want to get some for my 95 for sure. I might put hid's in them though. 95-99 are all the same behind the light by the way, the grill is the least of your problems

It took some time (much much more than 8 hours to do everything) but im pretty pleased with how they turned out.

I think they look great! Great job on the fitment, looks like they could have come that way. I personally love the smoked ones and I want to get some myself.

I agree Karim. I've wanted to do this but would have to have the bodywork done to get them to fit correctly. I think they look sick I'm just not a fan of the gap, to me it defeats the whole purpose.
