Hey Alex, 
 
looking good in the new avatar. 
 
I got them out of the US for approx $12 a set in a group buy a while back. I'll have to get some stuff soon if you want me to chuck them in an order. 
 
Only thing is once some US shipping is added and local postage you'd be looking at around $25.


Hi Mark,

Put me down for two pairs please.

Happy to throw you some coin into a nominated account.

Muchas gracias.

The JDM ones will craze because of the HIDs. The only solution is the keep polishing them regularly. That's what I found anyway.

I can see you re-fitting the orange indicator lenses down the track to return it to stock!

 

I would tend to disagree about it due to the HID. Ive seen plenty of Gen2 projectors which are non HID with the same lens damage and the crazing on the GTB ones is also around the very edge of the indicator area so I wouldnt think the HID would affect there.

 

More UV / climate / neglect related imo.

I polish my headlights with Mothers scratch remover every wash. Keeps them looking good.

I sometimes wax them if I'm feeling fancy.

I do mine once a month with PlastiX but my car is garaged at home and work so spends the majority of its time out of the elements.

That's fair enough. Not saying that lenses on halogens don't craze, the sun still attacks them. But I find myself polishing the lenses on my HIDs much more often than I did when I had halogens.

Barely noticeable. :)

 

 

In preparation for the STi rear wing which doesnt have a brakelight, I got a high mount from the wreckers, made a bracket and replaced the four globes with an LED set up. Two strips of 18 super bright leds. Nice :)

Only use the racks for the longboard otherwise shortboards always go in in the back with the 60 split down.

Got this as it seemed pretty cool.

 

Genuine Rev D ~ E factory option brochure. Lots of cool JDM options and also has the optional audio/visual brochure with it.

Buy a 2009 Gen 4 3.0R SpecB wagon in Atlantic Blue, Diamond Grey or White, go nuts and then I'll buy it off you. Good deal is good. :D

No. When I sell this it would be for a cheap car to drive to work and something in the garage - old school. Already have the cheap car lined up......
