Ebay / AAS Kits
I've seen the same kit that many people have of AAS that I like alot being sold on ebay for about $300 less. Do most people buy directly from AAS or do the ebay route? Anyone have experience doin the Ebay route and gettin f'd over?

AAS is the ONLY place you should ever buy the kit from. It's only, what, $500 now?
The ones on eBay are extremely low quality, very poorly fitting knockoff pieces of garbage.

I figured it'd be horrible quality and weak as hell, but I also figured that it would be in the same shape as the AAS kit, and I could reinforce it myself and work out the fitment

And why would you want to do that? You're going to spend more trying to get it to work right than you would've doing it right the first time.

I think yours looks great, it was one of the first I looked at when I was lookin at ideas. I love your interior and your projectors any more pictures of the projectors?
edit:
also arent their legal issues with the projectors? gotta have it aligned perfectly someway to be legal? did you worry about that or just figure theres no chance it'd be checked.

What the hell Ion. Are you on Aleromod constantly? Check prices everywhere? lol.
Anyways, No e-bay kits. You'd be better off with Cardboard.

Yes I've heard of other cars owners buying kit on eBay and it ends up costing them $200 to $300 more to just get it fitted than to get if from the company in the first place
