Dual Beauties

Hey Tan,
nice ride, could I ask you something? How does the 8000k HID lights look at night(headlights)? I am interested in the 8000k kit since I hear its more purple then blue, which is what I want. Please let me know....
Thanks
Z
Also, pics? At night?

They are Sylvania Xenarc HID Fog Lights I purchased them at the Los Angeles Auto Show for $399.00. They are bright enough that I do not need to use my headlights, although I never drive that way unless I am approaching my house. The fogs came with Super Blue HID-like bulbs for my high beams. So the HID low beams now match the high beams with a blueish tint.
My headlights are 8000K Falcon HID bulbs and ballast for $590.00

What year is that red car? Obviously it has a 2002 conversion on the front.. but why is there such a LARGE space between the front bumper and the hood... looks like an inch!

Aside from the gap between the hood and bumper, this is how I believe Honda should have made the 02 conversion. I like the 02+ headlights with the 91-01 bumper much better than the wide mouth 02. I'm not saying the 02 looks bad, but this way look much better IMHO.
 
Okay, so my long held belief is right and contrary to popular belief, you can in fact use the old style bumper cover w/ the new lights. Looks like the only part that needs replacing/modification is the hood? Can anyone confirm this?

Does this mean that you don't have to cut the bumper in order to accomodate the new lights and asking again do you need to replace the front hood. Thank you in advance. And TanTheMan your car is deadly gorgoeous. You're the MAN!

I absolutely agree with Chris. I think this combo looks awesome and I don't like the 2002+ bumper. Looks like the front bumper was modified to have large indentations to take the headlights.
Maybe this is a fiberglass piece?

Not just the hood, the fenders were replaced with '02+ (no blinkers on the side). The front bumper 1) might have been modded (and messed up) to fit the whole setup, thus there's a gap or 2) it hasn't been modded, the gap might be the reason '02+ bumper was introduced.
