euro lights can be had for 350. that is what i paid for mine. they use the stock h4's i believe. dont quote me because i converted mine to factory zeon/hids.
the 94-95 headlight WILL ONLY FIT those cars otherwise you will get a lame *** curve in your lens that is exposed. what i mean by this is look at the 94 hood line where it meets the lights. notice the curve on the lens? well i was gonna use that hood i sold but it would of looked like crap with my euro lights and i didnt want to convert a 2nd set to hids.

Daaaaaaaaaaamn, that looks hot Eric. I wouldn't mind getting those Carbon Fiber look grill. That'll look pretty good on my car.
Ab, I got the Half Black/Red ones you have. Hence the 94-95 Style Taillights, but I perfer aftermarket since they look better in my opinion. Where did you buy your taillights? That's really expensive, I could of recommended you to someone else. I also have a extra taillight laying around. I might just use that incase I crack mine or something.
Damn we're replying tooooo fast.
If you want to see what curve in the headlight Eric is talking about. You can look at a picture of my car with the updated headlights. You can notice the curve.

Thanks Eric. I've made up my mind, Avante Garde grille and Euro headlights. No face lift for me. Seems like too much work and moola. In fact I kinda like the star standing on the end of my hood. Reminds me that I'm driving a quality machine.

and I use the start to aim at the lines on the roads when I'm hauling *** through twist and bends.
lol. I'm not to be trusted with monthly payments. I might flake so therefore I would rather pay everything up front. I was looking at GenI bumpers on a white W124 and it doesn't look as good as a GenII. Thinking I'll definitely go with the GenII. Who knows. I might change my mind, but my mind set is pretty set.

lots of cars
The smoked ones i have are the stock ones with a smoked clear coat i did not buy them and only cost me $20 to smoke them but i don't like the fact that they are painted black and i want the plastic to be black on the tail light. I mean really black.

those tails are just smoke but i want the top black and the way their made they should be able to let the yellow light thru.
I went to photoshop and this is how i want them. I think they look better than clear/smoked.
