These has got to be the best looking headlights I've seen on a 7th gen. Wish I knew how to do the LED work for something like that.

custom

my headlights are custom 100% i've done a couple different things since i've first got the whip i had the demon eyes first with the anodize purple look, you cant get pulled over but i would stay away from anything associated with cop colors, 2ndly i did the angel eyes proud to say i'm the first, everything in the inside is painted custom. now i'm blk and silver a little more subtle but still pops,, if you have any questions hit me up on aim: OATRANZPORT
OR OATRANZPORT@AOL.COM, OR ON TWITTER: @TRANZPORTA

That's a BIG improvement from the last headlights IMO. It flows with the color of your ride much better.

Sorry about what happened but I personally think that it was a good thing. Now your ride looks better than ever.

Bulb is H11. All you need to do is remove the clip under your front bumper n you can have excess to your fogs

I don't sorry. I used to have 3k on my fogs n decide to go with 5k white to see how it will look on super black Max n I was disappointed so put my 3k back on n keep the 5k a spare

HIDs from different companies are going to be extremely hard to match. Reason is cause companies make tons of bulbs then put them in a best fit category so your 5k light is actually a color in a certain range as opposed to being exact. I tried 5k first and no match so tried 6k and its much closer...but my headlights are bluer than stock so don't order what I did.

KMoney - old headlights were mad creative but I agree I think the new ones look dope.

Well technically I think the bluer ones are 8k and higher, 6k is supposed to be super white but the ones I got seem to be leaning towards 7k and have a very slight blue tint to them.

honestly I got some cheap ones off eBay (not from China) and just made sure they're waterproof. I know a bunch of people will probably argue with me on this, but I didn't see the reason to spend more when I could get a HID fog kit for $45. even if it has problems that isnt too much loot to replace. my headlights i think were changed by previous owner cause they definitely are a white/blue.

You're definitely coming fresh with it man...I like that you're always doing your own thing. Honestly the only thing that'd be better is if you had videos taken of while you're working and putting in the lights, for some I bet that's real helpful.
