I was thinking about the handful of cars with circular headlights, and that some of them have multiple projectors in black or chrome avail, some even have halos....such as the '95-'99 Dodge/Plymouth Neon (DEPO recently came out with some excellent projectors that are far superior to the APC ones)...there's also the Subaru WRX, which have the rally style projectors avail. as well, then there is also the Integra which have Projectors as stock equipment....but the two lights on those are molded together as one piece...)
what I was wondering is how close (shape wise) would a set of the Neon DEPO or WRX Projector Rally style headlights to the Celica low beams? I bet they would fit with a little modification, a little cutting here and there, maybe a little filler...they look decent in my head, LOL, but can anyone do a photochop?? The Neon lights in my opinion look more similar in shape, I bet they'd be a mild installation, here are some pics: Neon DEPO Projectors: (they'd just have to be angled a little to fit with the Celica headlight shape) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/95-96-97-98...075517271QQrdZ1 Subaru WRX: (1st one is JDM Projector/Rally style, 2nd is Stock Replacement) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/02-03-SUBAR...075443132QQrdZ1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/02-03-04-IM...076431296QQrdZ1 What do you guys think? These can be had for less money than JDM Celica Projectors, and they'd also be totally custom, in reality since it would really be a headlight conversion.... I was even wondering how a set of Mazda RX-8 taillights (maybe headlights too but not too sure...) would look, I'm thinking they would look a little small but modern at the same time, I don't really like the stock taillights, I want something with LEDs or something, LOL.... If you don't like the idea atleast be respectful and don't bash it, I think they could actually look decent... |

DON'T DO IT!!!!! ...it will look really bad, and terribly ricy. Save the cash, be patient, and go for REAL JDM pros.
