Ok night-time. Remember, im still getting used to taking night photos with this camera, so excuse the blurryness in a couple of the photos.


Ground shot (Actual color of the light)


Beam pattern cutoff line color


Yes i know, blurry, I'll get a tripod and really show you guys how it looks on a dark street, but hey its a good example of how bright it is on the road.

Refer to my previous threads about the information on these. And yes, they look like a benz because they came out of a benz.

I didnt use nightshades. The headlights arent tinted at all. The entire housing is painted black inside.

As usual....I love the way that looks.
If I could pay you like $500 for those and them just be ready to put in my car, I would do it in a heartbeat. However, I don't know enough about all of it to even attempt going about doing this.
I may be partial, but I think the design your headlights have looks especially hot with the Crimson Blaze Red. I mean, the blacked out housings go really well with the rest of the car.
Thanks for sharing the pics.

few q's @ new lights

First, they look sweet as; Now, are they a kit? Is there a possibility of a black chrome finish for the inside, are they halogen or HID? Wattage? Integrated high beam? All in all; f*&%ing snazzy and certainly unique. Enjoy them

Looks really sweet, if I had the money I would go the projector way but gonna have to stick to stock bulbs (fake blue bulbs suck).

Question: Why did you black out the housing anyways, Blue? Visual or does it help?

pics look nice and definately better than previous pics...

wish-it-was,

they are custom made...ie no kit. they are HID Bi-xenon with the integrate high beam.


I'm not a fan of the blacked out housings but they do look good..

That's the third time I see a kid showing off that his mom has a luxury car. The other two showed off their mom's Lexuses (lexi? oh, whatever) on different threads.

Heh heh, sorry.. I am your typical envious poor college student with poor parents.

Thanks nupe,
I would have looked at previous threads, as BlueC suggested, but I'm still too broke to search threads, and too busy to scour(sp?) all threads to find out. 'preciate it.

looks great dude! i think it's just different than what people are used to and that's why it seems weird, still awesome none the less.

one thing i think will make your headlight/clearance lamp combo look 10x better is redo your clearance lights and make sure they're all black without the lighter glue part showing. will definately clean it up, like geo's.

As far as the corners, im gonna get the diamond cut corners of ebay (same ones geo has) and paint them black. Im probably gonna order them this weekend.

Only reason why I went with the black was, to reduce glare inside the housing, and it really helps the projectors stand out more. And trust me, it looks so nice in person. Ill have to take a long distance shot or something, cause it looks even better from a distance.
