Got to say I'm not a big fan of soft top convertibles but with the roof down it looks bloody fantastic.

Had some new headlights arrive yesterday and so fitted them today seen as the weather was nice. Alot better than the hazy sun damaged ones that were on there. Nice little upgrade with the DRL LED's and the bi-xenons.

Damn they are for facelift. Shame as they look a lot better than standard lights

 

They are for the facelift but my car is prefacelift. Fit just fine. The only thing I had to do is purchase new HID bulbs as the new lights take D2S bulbs and the stock prefacelift ones take D2R bulbs, also just had to snip 1 wire otherwise the indicator is on with the DRL's. Dead simple.

 

Obviously if you have the stock HID's its a straight fit, if you only have halogens as standard then they won't be suitable. Basically if you undo the wheel arch liner and look at the main headlight connector (Grey) if its got 8 pins you'll be fine, if its got 6 then it wont fit and you'll have to do some rewiring on the car and buy some HID ballasts.

Ahh sounds simple enough. I'm decent with a spanner but I don't have a clue when it comes to the electrical side so very cautious as it's usually expensive if mistakes are made :lol: I'll have a look next time I'm working on the car as this could be a mod on the to do list for the winter as I've always wanted a change form the silver innards of the standard lights.

 Thanks mate, not many decent aftermarket options but these are one of the best in my opinion.

Not really involved on the electrical front tbh. Take a look at the 2 links below. They are both youtube videos showing how to install these exact lights. The first is by Spec D Tuning and the second is by some random dude that is upgrading 03 to 06 lights. The only real electrical thing to do is to snip the WHITE wire going to the indicator bulb and wrap both ends in electrical tape.

If you have any questions by all means PM me.

Fitted my new wheels today. VERY happy with them, but need to lower the rear and probably roll the rear arches. Enkei NT03+M 18x9.5" ET27 front (+5mm spacer to clear Brembos) and 18x10.5" ET30 rear.

Looks good. I wouldn't have chose a roadster but I ended up with one. 

 

Now I wouldn't swap for a coupe. They're addictive and like nothing else on uk roads. 

 

I can't think of a better summer/weekend car for the money.

Got a Nismo V2 rear spoiler, had it sprayed and fitted. Makes a massive difference to the look of the car and that carbon blade looks fantastic and I'm not a carbon person. Also had a Stillen roof spoiler painted and fitted. Before and after pics:

Outside of the car is pretty much finished now. Now for the interior and engine.
