Looks awesome!! Those pictures are nice as well!

EDIT: Are your headlights just a low beam now or can you make that a hi-low type thing??

Im telling you, when i turned it on, its just amazing, i cant describe it
The best part is that the projector makes those sick colours when you look @ it from different angles

Thanx guy, i know its bright as hell
IF any1 has any questions, just ask me!
I bought my camera when it just came out, it was considered top of the line amateur camera, not SLR
I paid 999US for it like maybe 2 years ago? Now it goes for like 699 or even less i think, but it is more than enough for me

Sorry missed your questions, no that was LOW beam but yet the projectors DO have high beam option, i just have to wire it up
I cant imagine flashing some1 with highbeams They will go blind

Its almost too bright.
I think the projector in the headlamp looks disgustingly out of place.
But all in all, great effort.

Yea they look a LITTLE weird, but better than HALO or Angel eyes aftermarket headlightes!
Plus i took a pic with flash, and believe me once ill put them on my car you wont be able to notice it as much as u notice it right now

Thank you for all your great comments Im glad most of you are happy
To answer your questions
Im using Hella Bi-xenons ECE projectors that i bought from a guy named Deepakmanuel, very respectable and amazing seller on Ebay, if you do a search for "HID or Xenon projectors, im sure ull find him.
Since i had my old HID plug and play kit, i just purchased projectors(from Deepak) and D2S sockets from http://www.suvlights.com
IF i wouldnt have my old stuff, then i wouldve purchesed the whole system, meaning 2 Projectors, 2 ballasts and everything that goes in a kit on ebay.
There is another place where you can buy HID kit, that place is http://www.hidtech.com, go to products, and you'lll see that they sell Hella package, which includes everything you need to do your retro, also dont forget to read a post by ill_take_one, becuase Brent knows his **** and knows what his is talking about
http://www.hidforum.com is another good source to see some nice retros and ask questions
I hope i helped!
PS: For people who doesnt need a HIGH beam option, you can go with Valeo lowbeam projector which has amazing output, and some say even better than Hella, but unfortunatly i need to have high beams

IF any1 wants more pictures, close-ups, let me know
