JCW side skirts or BFC HID kit

Have funds for either or. JCW side skirts plus paint will probably cost around 1K (give or take). My car came with Halogens and have always wanted Xenons. Blackflame customs offers a full kit housing and all for roughly the same price. Please keep in mind this is a retrofit so no recoding is needed.

Looking for opinions?? thoughts?

Thanks!

I would rather HIDs, but try the retrofit yourself and save some coin.

Lights help on the road; side skirts are just for when you look at the car. I'd rather have something that is used when driving the car.

I like the side skirts, They add a nice look to the car. I haven't had any issues with the stock headlamps...

Cheers!

I agree but man I think these change the appearance of the car



However these look close to stock and no recoding needed
