Those look nice but I'm still waiting for Hyundai to provide a set of rear mud guards that fit! :rant2:

you do realize that those Angel Eyes have been out for quite some time now, right?

as for the lighted sills, those are interesting... for someone that has "pimped out" their Sonata (Pardon the expression, nothing negative meant by it), those would fit right in, rather than getting LED strips, etc.

I don't mind the EL sills... they're kinda cheesy, but still pretty.

All for only $600.00 large to you the B-Style Grill @ $220.00, the Eglow sills @ $170.00, and the DUAL CCFL HALO RIMS & LED @ $209.00 are very nice indeed.

How many of you would actually consider these?

I really am considering the headlights, they are pretty darn sweet looking, plus they get rid of the orange side markers. :grin: Door sills on the other hand, I would never spend the money on to get lighted ones as I like the way the stock ones look. The lighted ones are nice, but just would never spend the money. Not really digging that grill, but would consider spending $200 on a different aftermarket grille. :thumbsup:

I got mud guards from here... http://hyundai.dealerfit.com/store/hyundai...rod566_4755.php
They all fit just fine... The rear were tricky to install, but they fit.

He was referring to the 2009 model. Look at the disclaimer in your linked product.

The inside of those headlights looks cheap, I wonder about the quality of the projectors too.

I wouldn't mind them if they had decent projectors still, but I think halos have been played out :whistling:

i actually would like the look of them a bit more if it wasnt black on the inside of the housing. they had "chrome" housings a while back, but havent had them since.

that said, if i cant even justify getting myself new rims, i certainly cant justify getting Halos for my headlights... if i was going to spend that kind of money, i would get HID's first...

would definitely NOT get the lighted sills though... dont think Blue/Green lighting would go good with my Dk Cinammon Sonata....

Did anyone notice the discrepancies on the ad page for the grille?



"Application: 06-08 Sonata"

"Comments: BMW-style grill replaces the OEM grill for the Elantra and has OEM fitment."

And the photo clearly shows it on a 2009 Sonata!

I wish more companies and aftermarket products worked for the 09 sonata, I definitely want new lights on my car soon but i cant find any for the 09 sonata!

What is the technology of the lights? Are these long-lasting lights?

Looks very cool.

.... yea those may have been out for ages but, I DO LIKE THAT GRILLE!!!

I dunno i usually hate aftermarket grilles that are rip-offs from more expensive cars stock grilles but it does look real nice on the sonata/elantra, lol.

also I think its funny because i was just arguing to someone how you could tell the sonata took the 06-08 model design from the bimmer just like they they did with jaguar for the 3g!

They had the nerve to say my beloved sonata looked generic!!!
