little update. going to install tonight. i never really liked how the corner light was very visible so i decided to make a cover for it. had a pair of new 95 corner lights, took them apart and cut it to fit the headlights.

Could've easily done the trim piece around the projectors but that might've looked out of place.

Install NAOW!

I like it but the yellow stands out a bit too much IMO because of the rest of your front end.

Need more yellow somewhere else. Fogs maybe? I fogs here that I can retro with ES300 yellow fog projectors and sell you.

i already have a set that i wanted to retro. good idea though! feel free to steal anything, we all have good ideas and thats why we post on here.

the yellow is a bit out of place i agree, but not enough for me to go back to my old setup. i like it, just drove around too and man do i like the output it lays down on the street under my projectors. i purposely aimed them down so while on they wouldn't be blinding people.

i was never a fan of yellow fogs/brights, but i do like how you did the borders for the headlights and brights. i also like the way you combinded the stock corners to the headlight lens, over all headlights look really nice
