I have yet to see them yet.
I talked to an APC rep and he said that they will be out in about 6 weeks.
However, not even he has seen what they look like.

I guess we will know in about a month and a half.

That's the style I've seen on the web. These may possibly be Civics, but the PT is similar:



Just looking at them, they seem illegal (FMVSS 108 illegal) because they have no side marker reflector. Maybe APC is correcting this.

On the plus side, that housing looks like an opportunity to run projectors and/or HIDs. I don't know what form factor APC is using here, but I think Hella makes projector beams that look about that size. Sure looks a lot better than these bug eyes (Hellas???):

Holy crap-- the headlights on that picture look awful. Especially the passenger-side one-- it looks like iguana eyes. I'm just waiting for them to start shifting randomly in different directions!

Those are made by Vesta-Tech in Germany, using Hella 90mm headlamp modules.You can get the modules themselves here in the US, but this lamp as a whole is not legal (no turn signal).
I don't know who makes those big-ass ones on the red car, but it sure as hell isn't Hella!
I work for Hella here in the U.S. .

I also have one of these front bumpers sitting here in the warehouse that I may use.

The reason(?!) for modifying any vehicle is to:

1. Express yourself
2. Inspire others
3. Inspire the factory

Yes, actually inspire the factory to move forward in design. Headlights, taillights, bumpers, grilles (I've been over this issue in previous posts) are simple tweeks DC can accomodate, but for some reason has refused to do after four model years.
