Should of wrapped those headers - the tinny sound will drive you mental later.

[Ben_20EJT]

did you notice a loss of power when u put them on? i put the on my car and i dont think it pulls as hard as it did, i dunno but.

[jakefake]

Ill probably end up wrapping them jimbo, they come off in about 10mins
They sound good so far but do you think the wrap is a must?

I think I might have a slight loss but I knew that well before I bought them.

Now these arrived today but im having second thoughts hooking up to my lowbeam.
As far as I know they are illegal to run on you're low beam unless you have auto-leveling headlights with light washers (projector lights) or something?
Whats you're thoughts?

into these style headlights -->

[Matt]

Yeah theyre illegal...,but everyone has them installed? Ive had them forever..i have the complete jdm hid unit now though with level adjusters etc

8000k is very blue though, max id run is 6000k...or 5000k if i could find them....less blue = less noticable by the popo...but ive never seen anyone get done for them

[FR34KO]

^yeah 8000 gon be noticed by the wrong the kind of attention. i have 6000k and they are good very white but with some blue tinge also

[Josh.]

i have a mate who got defected for 8000k HID's just recently, they really do stand out
in my opinion you'll just be asking for trouble with 8000k taking into account your on your P's with a low car with wheels that stick outside the guards and by the looks of things is also pretty loud.

[jakefake]

yes, maybe ill just buy some 6000k ones and just go with it

thanks for the feedback guys btw. All my mates are haters cause their into sliding with their N/A wet weather warriors.

[Rustyrobertson]

yea jake i had 8000K in mine, i didnt get a defect, but i did get a warning (they were in for about 2 weeks) i am currently running 6000K atm and have not had any problems, (over 2 years ) with the increse in kelvin rating (other wise known as colour tempreature) you lose lumens (amount of light) so the higher you go in colour tempreture the less light you get, and the gen3 headlights are crap to begin with, so get some 6000Ks and enjoy the white light, and put your 8000Ks in your foggies and you shouldnt have a problem

Its just short of the length of the boot but it still looks good if you actually take time to make sure its straight! Its magnetic and double sided tape, haven't had any problems with it so far

Have you got a build thread of your car zach?
