is it just me or I the only one that thinks those are ugly? Maybe if they had the bubble type cover over them to keep the curves of the front end... but that just... ewww

I agree!! I would save the money for other mods like gauges or LED's or a dual exhaust system. You would probably spend a sh!t load of money to get them anyway. Then modify it so they could fit. To much $$$$$ just for that. Just my oppinion.

Externally, there's little work to be done.

Internally, you have to replace the entire headlight mount, brackets, and adjusting assembly with one from Europe, which is a large portion of the front bumper. And then buy the lights and covers on top of that. I don't know exactly, but you're talking at least several hundred dollars in body work.

You wouldn't think so, but It's quite an extensive modification that requires a lot of money and a lot of work just to get those lights to mount.

The HLA's alone are about $540 plus shipping to the U.S. so yeah it would be pretty expensive once you add all the body work. That said...one of these days I'm gonna do it, just not anytime soon.
