Headlights/Corner Lenses
So I have a 2005Black V6 Mustang and have just started getting into moding it. Right now I am looking at altering the headlights. I am pretty sure I want to get the Black Projector headlights with LED. I saw these on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/05-07...QQcmdZViewItem. I still don't understand why they are half the price of ones from AmericanMuscle or StangMods. I am still stuck on whether to get the black ones or chromes ones or stick with that standard. Also I was looking at the bumper turn signals. Would the black projector headlights and the clear bumper lights mesh together? Just looking for opinions/pictures.

RE: Headlights/Corner Lenses
First of all, welcome to the forum! Secondly, try to avoid non-name-brand stuff on ebay...usually you get what you pay for...half price = half quality. Thirdly, do what you want to your car. Whatever you think looks good and makes YOU happy, go for it. People on here will share their opinions, sometimes whether you ask for them or not, but as long as you like what you've done to your car it doesn't matter what they say.
Since you asked for opinions though
I'll be happy to give mine. Nay on the projector headlights, yay for the clear bumper signals. I've thought about putting clear bumper turn signals in as well, and we have the same year and color mustang! Also, IMO, you should save up money for a intake and tune package from a reputable tuner.

I say leave the stock headlights in and spend some $ on other stuff.. just my opinion.. Ive wanted to get projectors for a while now and cant justify the costs (or the effort to take the front bumper off again..lol) You could always go HID's..
As for the clear corners.. I'd say look into the smoked color as well, especially for a black stang.
I dont know what theme you want to go with, but I am a big fan of the murdered out look.
(dark tints, black rims, smoked lights, etc.)

RE: Headlights/Corner Lenses
I think I am just going to get the black turn signals and the stealth bulbs. On stangmods there are 2 different kinds the the 194 and 3157 xenon bulbs?Whats the difference? I also heard about another type of brand but any opinions on which bulb to get?
