Completely agree with that. These things are cheap (comparatively) for a reason. I will do a retrofit with good quality projectors but just want something to do till I can afford to do a retrofit.

Here are more pics of my car. Made an album in the gallery.

I haven't done much with the car. Only had it for a year. But have I no plans to sell it and plan on doing a lot of mods including an engine swap

WTB hubcaps that are that clean. Mine were scratched up when I bought the car, and that picture just makes me even more motivated to take the hub caps off and get to painting them (though, I am afraid of ending up with no hubcaps for 4 months because I will get bored with sanding hubcaps).

Stop being a douche. His car looks fine.
If you're going to do a retrofit anyways, i'd get window tint instead of the projector headlights.
I have some cheap ebay projector headlights that are fine and have good light output. I like think they look better than stock since they have black housings (yea there's blacked housing stock ones, i don't care).

Have you never seen this stuff before?
Yeah, it works. If you take your time and seal them right, they won't leak.

tomayto, tomahto 
Finally, someone that doesn't hate projectors!
Heard about it and will have to get it. Most sellers I've seen recommend using that to seal up the housing.
Thanks everyone for your input. From what I gather, ebay projectors are cheap and don't last and it has a lot to do with personal taste.
That being said, I'm going to get a set just to play around with and see how they look. I will post pictures after they've been installed.

Aye!!! you shut your mouth lol I went ahead and aimed them correctly this weekend so all is well now, no more people giving me a dirty look hah.
I can see where you're coming from. One of my reasons for wanting projectors is I want to run HID bulbs but don't want to blind everyone. Friend of mind recently got HIDs with his stock housing and he keeps getting flashed by other drivers.
Is there a solution for that besides aiming the lights lower?
