The Si Canuck's SLOW Build Thread

[webby]

just be warned that you could get a ticket for having red there. Red is supposed to only show as a brake light on the back of vehicles. White/yellow on the front of a vehicle. A cop could ticket you for this.

 

[The Si Canuck]

Oh I know. Like I said it's mostly for how they look during the day. I don't use them at night.......no point really.

A couple night shots for people contemplating red overlays for fogs........remember you could get ticketed lol!

Hid install pics. Awaiting wife to get home so I can put the bumper back on without having a "OMFG I just scratched my paint" moment.

And a couple more...

nice work -- hows the light pattern/cuttoff of the light beam? Can you take some pics of the headlights shining on a garage door or wall?

 

[The Si Canuck]

Final install........6000K RTX HID's. I had 10000 in my 06, and I gotta say, I like the white much better than the blue!

 

[The Si Canuck]

For Webby....cutoff a stock vs Hid comparison

 

[webby]

cuttoff doesn't look that bad for a plug and play kit. Usually there are more hotspots/glare above the normal cuttoff line.

 

[The Si Canuck]

Yeah that's why I went with RTX......I loved them on my 06 as well. And thanks

Got my Red Emblems today from Kplayground!!

 

[webby]

looks like they fit better than your last set

Ok, that cutoff picture just made up my mind for me. I'm sticking with Halogens until I can do a retrofit. Good post! Thanks for all the pics!

the "Si"THMOBILE looks awesome... kinda bold, but nonetheless awesome

I heard back from grafixpressions.......apparently it was completely my fault, even after I asked others here just to be sure they fit, because they are meant for the 06-11 model years. They fit perfectly on the 2012 sedan I got into the accident with, but apparently not the 2012 coupe as I just found ot today. Nothing they can do........so I guess I'm out 85 bucks. And they had NO IDEA that they didn't fit the 2012's........hmmmm.......guess I was the only one that owns a 2012 that bought them. Anyways, thanks for the advice/suggestions. I've ordered another set from Kplayground. Unfortunate.

Dont feel to bad bro, i bought the package deal that came with the steering wheel and key fob and they only sent me the front and rear badges. They fit and everything but i was kinda upset that i didnt get them all at once so i emailed them and had to send pictures of the shipping package and they sent me the rest of my stuff...... needless to say i wish i didnt have to wait for a whole week just to get what i was supposed to have in the first place.....now i just wanna see how these emblems hold up and hope theyre not cheap replicas
