Bought the evo-xr projector kit from morimoto along with a few different projector shrouds, and a set of spare headlights(that I didn’t research first befor buying 2003 model perm seal ones lol)


So, the plan is to clean/restore the used 03 headlights and pop them in as loaners while I take my time with my original 02 xenon headlights.

I think I have narrowed it down to:

—Brand new lenses. Retaining the orange slice corner marker inserts.

—Painting the headlight inner housing cosmos black(to match my new interior trim set)

—using the “e55 look” projector shrouds as I like the broader permitter plateau that resembles titanium color, while deleting the fresnel high and low beam glass inserts.







Most likely leave at that, but may try a few other subtle mods. Don’t care for angle eyes or anything that screams aftermarket, but do kinda want a bespoke look.


If anyone has any pointers on things they wish they had done differently, feel free to share!
