First ones for sure! never liked smoked headlights at all the point is to get as much light possible out of your headlights not cover it up.

 

First ones it is then

I looked at the thread about painting mine, that's pretty neat. However, money isn't an issue right now and I can get those lights off of eBay for around $80 shipped.

Now, the only thing I'm worried about is taking the front bumper off. I had the car painted a little over a year ago by a guy who does body work out of his garage at his house. I was looking at the bumper and I think I see some spots where the paint/clear coat from the bumper is "attached" to the paint/clear coat above the bumper. I don't want to pull the bumper off and have some of the paint/clear coat come off with it

 

Why not save the money and buy a short shifter setup or something?

I have bought the headlights you want to buy and I've bought the shifter setup. A short shifter is a MUCH better investment.

 

Short shifter with an auto tranny? If it was possible I would do it

I've already dumped a ton of money into this car (somewhere in the $3500 range, not including repairs. I think that's quite a bit for a college student) and I don't really want to spend much more, but I'm thinking the headlights will be the final touch. I'm not going to do any kind of engine swap or turbo setup. I already have overhauled the sound system completely, added subs, Flowmaster, AEM SRI, painted it and got new tail lights. I honestly can't think of anything else that I'd want to do to it.

 

how bout an Auto-->Manual swap?

I ended up using the 3M restoration kit to restore my headlights. I forgot to take before pictures, but the headlights look much better now. I was stunned at how well that kit works. I'll try to post some pictures of what they now looked like at some point.
