CE Black housing headlights and mevi shots.

I decided to take some pics so everyone has an idea how these headlights look on a 4th gen. Especially for those gold maximas





How did that get in here?!

Those lights look awesome. Any difference in beam pattern? Do you have any night shots?
Your car looks amazingly clean. Nice work....

no i ment the headlights are glass. As for the valve cover question that is what i was referring to with the polishing and sanding for the engine bay. Intake is from stillen www.stillen.com and headlights are from CE www.customenterprise.com

Wow, I'm liking the headlights/corners but the amber bulbs throw it off a little IMO.. I might have to grab these instead a pair of 1 piece Cefiros, based on the OEM fit. BTW is there any significant difference (other than the price) from the lights from CustomEnterprise and these on eBay:

The corners are great and fit great but make sure the harnesses work or else you will have to take them off and use the stock harness which in my case was disaster. I chiped a little piece of the plastic and I broke the ball joint. These things are not built nearly as strong as OEM so be careful with them. Damn those glass headlights are hot i'm seriously going to get them!!!

i have those corners too and had same problems. when i first received them, both harnesses didn't work and didn't fit right so i called and returned them. i got the second pair and both fit but one of the harness didn't work. so i had to switch one from the stock harness to make them work. other than that it matched my headlights well.

I got my headlights from ebay. yes ebay its the same **** as Custom enterprise. I did get the side lights from custom enterprise because ebay didnt have them. Same fittment as OEM. I had no problems with anything. I will take more pictures tonight with the lights on.

Oh yeah my PAINT IS OEM ALL FACTORY. Im the 3rd owner of the car, my brother was the 2nd owner and a very old man was the 1st owner which kept it in the garage 90% of the time. When my brother had it I was the one cleaning it 2x a week. Now in my hands its like almost everyday cleaned. Yeah im trying to keep it as best as I can so that when time comes for me to sale I can assure the new owner there is nothing to worry about. Plus 70% of the things under the hood are new, as in trans, clutch, flywheel, axles, battery, radiator, starter, belts, tensioner, engine mounts ect ect. I can keep going but yeah.
