Installed AE Headlights! Pics + 1st Write Up :) Also pics of I30 Heads

Hey guys, ordered AE headlights from ebay ( http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2402229679 ). Not sure if there is already a write up but decided to do one anyway, my first one. Page has finished pics too.

also wanted to see how Maxine would look with some I30 headlights, I know they didn't fit, but took them out of my mom's I30...

Sorry for asking this dumb question, but what is the difference between the headlights I have (2K SE) and AE Lights?

Thanks.

The border of the lights on the inside are bronze tinted (look more black though) as where the origianl headlights you have are totally metallic.

Take a very close look at the second link he listed. AE lights are a 'bronzed' effect around the parts that actually light up.
