I personally think your car would look better with the AE lights...but your car looks fine the way it is, too. Seems like a pretty minor cosmetic change for some major cash. If you're rich, go for it!!

Just paint it yourself. The AE ones have very little black and it would look better with more black. Just paint it yourself. BTW, I think your car looks good with the chrome on the front lights which matching the chrome 2k2-2k3 taillights. Just my 2 cents.

This will make it easier for you to compare. My vote goes to the AE lights

save the money? I looks like all those mods you've done so far you shouldn't need to worry about the cash. But I like it better stock...02

Its not rice andy!

But leave them chrome, it would look goofy with your light colored front (chrome grille) to have dark headlights, look like your max had 2 black eyes, lol.

They look good as is. You have a bling bling chrome contrast going that would be ruined by the AE's.

i think the AE would add a positive contrast on the car...go for it! -- makes the front end a little more aggressive

AE are some bomb headlights. Go with the AE, unless you want some HIDs

Hey, thanks on all the complaments guys I was having a hard time thinking on getting the AE's or not. I would love some HIDs but a little too much cash for those. I can get the AEs for 235 a set brand new.

The car itself is kinda bright. Add some contrast with the AEs. It'll definitely sharpen up the front end more than leaving it as is. If it were me, I'd go with the AEs!
