Re: new guy !
Welcome! Post lots of pics of your vibe! I also wonder whether your HIDs have projectors or not. The picture you posted does not seem to show projectors.

I only have hids without projectors right now I couldn't find a set
Re: new guy !
there's no aftermarket projectors for our vibes, you would have to retofit your stock housing for them.mikesimms219 wrote:I only have hids without projectors right now I couldn't find a set
Re: new guy !
Did you adjust your headlights down a bit to compensate for the brighter HID bulbs in reflector housings?mikesimms219 wrote:thanks ! and i have no mods yet aside from the HiD's, im titnitng out the windows soon, and debating an exhaust, you guys have any idea what some good mods would be?!
What % tint will you be getting?
An intake is always a relatively cheap and easy mod. A great place to start IMO!
