looks hella sexy. i got the same headlights for my 97. i think u should get the black housing bumper lights as well. they'll make the headlights look a hella of a lot better, but then my car is matellic bordeaux red so i dont know. are they the DEPO headlights or the real JDM S-IR stanley's from japan.

they are the stock headlights, i did the black housing myself for fun during the winter break we just had, cus i did my frineds 92 EG first, and he was ordering new ligths and if i messed up, it was cool. then i tried it on mine, if it dint work i was planning on ordering the DEPO's but yeah, turned out good so i didnt need to order, but i stil lhad to buy the corners. i was thinkin about getting the balck housing bumper lights, but i think thye are too black, these kinda go with the corners and plus my car is dark adn the white looks pretty good on it so yeah, thanks for the idea tho

and oh yeah i would get H&R's but then i heard that with an h22 swap you need coilovers, but i could be wrong, im not sure so im gonna get it in advance so when i get h22 i wont needa worry about it.
