Whistler Mod, Yes or No? What is your opinion on this, should I do the Whistler Mod to my headlights? I am thinking Gloss Black on my Red Z. I have all the supplies to do it, I just don't want to screw up mu headlights by doing it and then having it look terrible.

Halo's would be a no go for me, I personally do not like how they don't flow with the car as nice as the stock ones do. I am just unsure about doing this mod, because I have never seen it done on a car in person so idk how good it will look. I like how it looks in pictures but for a lot of things pictures just don't do it justice.

i think that it is a good idea for an appearence mod, but then again my car is navy blue. i also agree that the halos mess up the lines of the car, but each to their own.
i was wondering what color to do the inside of my haadlights, either flat or gloss black. still have not decided.

Go for it I think that it will look awesome with gloss black on a red car.
I also agree with you on the halo's I like the idea but they really just dont flow with the lines of the hood.

I'm going to go ahead and do the whistler mod. After looking around it really doesnt look that difficult, and I saw some pictures of it on a pewter car, and it was nice. I'll post pics when I'm done.
