So here is a crappy teaser pic of what X-Vert from NYCMaximas did for my headlights:


- Custom Gloss Black / Stock silver painted housing (idea credited to MaxBoost925)
- Cleared Amber w/ Malibu Lenses
- White E46 LED Daytime Devil Eyes (eBay)
- Old eyelids will be replaced with "Xtreme Fiberglass Eyelids" (purchased from The Law's old GB)

Once the car is finished, the headlights will be polished, cleaned and better pics will be taken. If you can't really notice the glossy-ness of these lights, look towards the bottom of the DDEs, and see their reflection.

 

so those are bimmers eyes, and it fits the maxima perfectly? cool

 

....

 

u know this doesnt help, if u know the answere say yes or no instead of this......
i know they make them for maximas too, i had a set they broke but i searched
E46 and it says that its made for bimmers, so i was wondering

 

You will have to excuse soonerfan, he trolls these threads night and day just looking to pick on someone.

 

Darn! someone beat me to it! i was thinking of doing the black/silver combo after seeing an RSX...but mine is just a little different could you post a pic from the top looking down into the headlights?? thanks!

 

Sure, when I get home later today, I'll post up some pics of them looking down. I'll also post a pic of the other headlight, which is new, so the clarity is better.


Maximus86, PM sent. But for everyone else, you can find them on eBay, search E46 Angel Eyes White, and you'll find them. They are about 24.99+shipping and yes they do fit.

 

I like your style

 

fixed

 

yes i know the answer since its common knowledge and these have been available for the maxima for about 4 years.

they arent FROM a BMW...they are LIKE the BMW

"E46" is the chassis code for 4th Gen 3 series BMW

 

Nice. Im planning on doing the same thing to match my black grill .

Post up pics when your done, I wanna see how those angel eyes look at night.

 

i still need to black out my headlights but im gonna do all of it. i want all that gray to look like the black

 

I like those...not crazy for the stock inside housing...Anyone wanna make me a pair? I like the halo look with the angle eyes...plus they are cleared....This is the only mod I need done...

Looks good tho

Cheers

TIP py Toes

 

thats pretty funny too EXACTLY like my headlights

 

More pics:

 

 

You know, I'm about to go and bake my lights liek in 5 mins because one of them started condensating.

I have to use the silicone sealant that I just bought as well.

 

what brand/type of paint did you use?

 

As far as the painting, I believe X-Vert took them to a body shop and had them professionally painted. All I know is that they are glossy black!

 

agreed

.....

 

a big to that

 

Those looks really nice.. Cant wait to get them ..

 

That looks awesome, cant wait to see them on your car.

 

That's pretty nice. You have to separate the lens from the assembly to do that, right? If so, do you get any condensation? Just curious. Also, you said you were gonna polish the lights, did you mean the outside lens, and if so, how would you polish them, mine are getting a bit cloudy.

 

Wow, that's nice! Curious to see how the gloss will reflect/refract the light esp. at night.

 

Very nice zero

 

yea i wanna see the output@!

 

Nice! So Malibu lens huh?

 

I think you shoulda kept the orange. The orange is sexy.

 

Yes, Malibu lens, matches the clearance light perfectly.

Maxboost, that is where I disagree. I will have an amber bulb, but I hate amber on a car. Unless its JDM, then they pull it off quite nicely.

 

Are these going on sale? I would like a pair if I can take off my HID and its a direct plug and play. They look very nice. WTG

Tip py Toes

 

PM X-Vert. He does them custom, these are not something found on eBay or anything like that. These were stock 02-03 HID headlight housings, then everything was done to them.

 

I like the glossy paint!

Maybe you can try doing it yourself. The hardest part could maybe be the paint job. There should be a 'how-to' on it somewhere. But then again, if you're not so confident around using the basic tools (flat head screw driver, etc.), then I guess you should let someone else do it.

 

Bump, i wanna see a night pic, very interested in the angel eyes.

Will any E46 rings match up closly?

 

yes, i wanna see pics of the angel eyes at night too!!

 

wow, looks pretty good

 

Where can i get the malibu lenses from has anyone ever reported their headlights being stolen after the conversion angel eyes and everything. Wonder if they know the difference. Cause if they cant tell the difference im all for it. I have the headlights just need to find time to do it. I now have 3 headlights purchased from ebay i have my receipts to send if anyone will be willing to assist me with installation.

 

are the OEM ballasts any different than the Helios Ballasts?

 

those are awesome lights

 

those are hawt!
