i'm planning to buy a pair of parabolics, but from what i search in ebay US, there's 1 piece that is without the indicator and there's another one that come together with the indicator. will both of them fit just nicely in a TE?

you would be mad to buy anything from the US with the exchange rate the way it is. but to answer your question yes they will both fit. to my knowledge the ones without the indicators are glass and the ones with are plastic. i would wait for a pair to come up in australia or from JDMNZ or even on this site.

thats about right, they will all fit your car....


buttttttttttttttttt

wouldnt the headligts be aiming the wrong way with USDM headlights?

i cant find any parabolics from ebay AU, i found a pair of parabolics of diamante for $100 that would be around AU$136? plus the posting $99 = AU$13x so in total around $270? that's not too bad i guess

yeah thats true you would have to have them adjusted.

:wtf:
uh... u sure? that means it wont be legal in australia?!

yeah thats not a bad price really but i would be worried bout them being damaged in transit cause they have to come so far but i guess thats the risk you take with everything. just look at my members machine post.

oh and another question here, my car has standard 15" alloy, if i get a 17" or 18" does that mean i have to get a new stiffer suspension too?

i dont see why you would have to get stiffer suspension because you overall diameter wont change but if you dont have it lowered it will look silly IMO.

i have seen that one but what concerns me is about those tiny damage. I won't be fitting it myself, i will be giving it to a smash repairer, would they know what to do with those tiny damage? it is very cheap i reckoned

LHD headlamps from USA are illegal. Although they will fit the car, they have a pattern that is the wrong side of the car.

Headlamps from JDM will be OK.

ah sorry i didnt bother to look that closely. are you paying for the repairs or is your insurance company? if its you then i would just look at getting a cheap replacement from the wreckers or off ebay( you can get single lights from ebay pretty cheap ) until a decent set of parra's comes along.

oh ok so the actual reflectors are different are they i thought it would just need an adjustment.
learn something new every day.

i have a pair of head lights and indicators in very good condition but i want to sell them for $200 the lot PP. so if your interested PM me.

i had a crash on the driver's side so I only need 1 piece of headlight unless it's a parabolic then i'll get a pair

Depends how much wreckers charge for one, the $100 for both might be cheaper, and then can sell the pair when you get some parras

it's a good idea i never thought of that.. selling off my regular headlamps when i get the paras ..:nuts:

yes - the one piece are the plastic one and the two piece are the glass ones.

nope but if you dont lower your car it would look a bit like a 4WD depending how big you go. also, your speedometer will be affected when you change the size of the tyre. you will need to get it calibrated.

it does change depending on the tyre size he goes with.
