NSX headlight conversion

[Alleykat]

For a good while now I have been looking around at headlights left and right to see what could possibly work on an NSX front end.The sleek look makes it harder of course.

AngelcityNSX just finished the Celica headlight conversion and it looks pretty dam nice.

That got me to wanna come up with a new idea even more.So far I have came down to Infinity lights.The only things I really have left to do now is get some measurements of the new lights.On top of that make sure they are gonna point properly.Someone came up with a photoshop for me of my idea.

Infinity on left , OEM 02+ on right..

What do you guys think? Aside from being placed in there I plan on color matching them or doing them black except the projector.

And what about the bumper? You'd need to make a bumper + headlight kit.

The bodyshop can figure that part out.Thats what im gonna be paying them for. :biggrin:

With the proper light there wont be any cutting to the actual car.Just cutting/adding to the hood and front bumper.

thats from the G37? i think the curvature will be all wrong

Don't like the jagged look that NIssan is using with the lights (including the 370Z). OEM looks a little better imo.

The headlight buckets may need to be cut and or repositioned to make those headlights work.

OEM looks better than any Nissan.

i don't understand why you would go though the trouble to do this. the infiniti headlights are bigger then oem and go further back. the trend on high end cars is for the fixed headlights to be smaller and go less distance towards the windshiled. lambo changed the headlights this year on the lp 560 gallardo and they now go about half the distance towards the windshiled and are smaller and the effect is dramtic and better. the f430 head light is much smaller then the 360 etc. Just seems like a alot of trouble for a bigger uglier headlight

Another OEM fan here. Not to go off topic but I just googled the lp 560 gallardo to take a peek.. is it just me or does the rear have some resemblance to the Audi R8?
