HID Retrofit..... you gut your old reflector housings and swap in a fresh set of HID projectors off a donor set of headlights, E46 and TSX projectors seem to be overall the most popular setups

ironic that someone can afford to do all this custom work with headlights

and not afford/have a nice camera, or know how to take half-way decent pics.

nice retro by the way.
