MP5 front + Miata headlights? : to Oscar

Post by advantiracing »

hey, i recently bought the MP5 body kit, which was a big pain in the *** to install and i noticed that there is quite a bit of space left under the bottom of the headlight to the bumper. Was this done on purpose by u to make room for a miata headlight? :welder:

I thought the Miata headlights were not as tall as ours.

I have the MP5 front ...maybe that is why my custom projectors were not too hard to fit ...being with the extra gap ?

Gregory in your pics with stock headlights it doesn't look like there's much gap.. do you still have your stock bumper to make a try?

no, I sold it to koreanmx-er, and my projector lights are a custom fit to my mp5 bumper and I don't know if they will fit on other kits or the stock bumper without more modifying :shrug:

That was the first time I've seen your car and WOW! Those projectors rock! Did you design them yourself, or is there some sort of a kit for them?

hmmm...nice. Did they take alot of modification to install? I hate my plastic lenses. I have to polish them twice a month just to keep them looking ok.
