They are custom retrofitted projectors. I'm about to send them back to have them re-done due to clearance getting the bumper back on. There's a slight gap due to the fogs pressing up against the oil coolers making it difficult to fasten everything down. I also am getting some slight condensation on the left side so I'll have that taken care of as well.

Also, are you on a drop? Idk if it's just me or the aero pieces but yours looks nice... Care to share what ya got if you are lowered?

Bloody hell those Civic's are ugly, looks like a Peugeot that's been beaten with the ugly stick. Really nice pics though, and the 8 is a beaut of course.

Oh ok you went retro, get the fitment down and you'll be golden

I'm lowered on Tein S-Tech- I think I was the first to get it done on the 40th (did it last March)

Well i can get you a ls2/yukon coil kit for $135 cheaper than bhr. So if your serious about it let me know man.

I won't be doing it right now, unless the performance difference is that great? Never heard of the LS2 coils... I drive an 08 with 6k miles on it so I'm pretty sure I shouldn't have too much to worry about with these at least for a while...

beautiful shots! I'm used to seeing my 40AE with the appearance package, rear spoiler and sunroof deflector(ugh). Your car looks really smooth(sleek?) without all that, it's nice to see one a little different than the rest.
