Lighting setup complete! Plus pics of other mods in the past 7 months

Hey all, I'm finally done with my lighting mods on the car. Lowbeam is Helios 7,000K D2R and 6,000K H3 for foglights. Reason why I have 7,000K low is b/c maximabest sent the wrong bulbs, and they are def more blue than the fogs. Around the car I have clear sidemarkers with inverted 194 hyperwhite LEDs in the city lights, sidemarkers. 9-LED hyperwhite LEDs in the license plate and reverse light. 9-LED blue LEDs for door lights and 6-LED blue for dome.

Daylight:

No glare, because the I35 headlights have a cutoff and thankfully in my little college town, the cops don't care about modded cars.

Blurry pics = not having my digicam+tripod at school, had to borrow the gf's.

I wasn't happy with what I received, so I returned it.

Well, I don't really want to post it all since it's a long story and upsets me everytime I think about it. I also told Umnitza that I wasn't going to post my experience with them publicly, and I am a man of my words.

Just FYI for all peeps, Helios = Prolumen and vice versa, same factory, same components, different brand sticker.

isn't the only difference like, the prolumen umnitza sells is a newer version of the kit? or something like that? but in terms of bulbs, everything is pretty much the same? obviously helios is noticeably cheaper....what else is different? warranty?

Both have a lifetime warranty, Umnitza posted a thread in the GB section over last summer saying how the 2 brands were actually made together.
