Cefiro one-pieces or 97-99 headlights?

Ok, I want to replace my current headlights with either 97-99 style headlights or the one-piece Cefiro headlights. I'm not sure what I should go with. I just want to hear some opinions from everyone else out there.

Putting on cefiro one-pieces = bodywork.

depends what you consider complicated and how good a fitment you want. some people cannot and will not accept the fitment issue even WITH body work...

With the Cefiro two piece, you get all the benefits of the one piece, H4 bulb etc, and none of the fitment/bodywork issues. The Cefiro 1-piece is an excellent, beautiful design. It's by far the best looking of the bunch, but it's only a perfect fit for the 4th gen I30.

Exactly...if you don't mind doing a little body work and can live with it, definitely go with the Cefiro one-piece

Yes.


Clee, have you modified or seen one piece cefiro headlight being installed? Nuff said.

There is actually no bodywork needed.

+ depends on one's definition of 'bodywork'.. there is modification required (shaving down certain areas), but no bodywork required (such as cutting up fender, paintwork etc.) +

There's a member on the org, SYCEFIRO, who can get the 1 piece, 2 piece, and even Cefiro HIDs for you if you'd like. And if you think the Cefiro 1-pieces look good, take a look at the Cefiro HIDs. Actually, maybe you shouldn't look. They cost like 2 grand.
Look at page 2 from here;

Has any one tried the two piece cefiros? I want the h4 over the crap 9004, but don't have the ***** to try it. I think I read from Sycefiro that some modifications was still needed but it'll fit better and easier to install.
