headlights
I own a 1991 240sx 3door and I want to replace the flip-up headlights with sunken 91 and up 300zx style lights. Does anyone know of a manufacturer who produces a kit for this project?

Yeah, there are several of them
There is a used kit for sale on Ebay right now for pretty cheap, but otherwise you're looking around $1K to do that, which is what has stopped many people including myself from doing so.

sorry, but that's all i know about low profile pop-up lights. then again, i never looked for much info about it. that probably doesn't help u, but i hope it does...

you could do what I saw someone with a ford probe do, the kid took the pop up headlights like ours, and painted the headlight all black except for 2 circles, so when you saw it @ first it looked like it had special headlights, but when you got closer you laughed yourself so hard you peed a little at how pathetic it was.

I was thinking about taking some rectangle fog lights and putting them where the front bumper lights are.
Leave the pop-up lights down, and wire and angle them so they are my head lights.
I know they have to be bright enough but any objections??

i dont think that is at all legal, but i am not sure. i know i had a friend use fog lights in his integra headlights, he shaved the inner one and found a round H4 foglight to fit in the bumper, and he got hassled all the time, the cops said it was not DOT legal, but again not 100% sure

I guarantee you there's some bullcrap law somewhere saying they must be between a certain height in the car, and it could look badass but I will bet it'd be more hassle than it's worth, easy way for any cop to pull you over.
