New HIDs!

Got my HIDs finally and I'm very pleased. I'm really bad at taking pictures of headlights but I attempted... sorry the engine bay is so dirty and I know; I haven't really hidden the wires or anything.

Passenger side


Driver's side


Got as much of the real color as I could into this...


Annddd night time photos (sorry wasn't using a tripod...)

Go to one of those manual car washes and select "engine degreaser" and just spray it down with that green shit then wash it off. I just covered my intake with a plastic bag... I haven't done it with HIDs yet, though and I probably won't

Kaixen 6000K 9006 low beam kit from from Excelerate so the same price as whatever the group buy price is.

edit: By the way, the pictures don't even do justice as to how bright these things are. I'll try to bring my tripod out tonight and get a picture...

Edit again... Those marker lights look kind of ... against the really white/bluish tint of the HIDs... anyone like the look of them in there or should I find something to put in there that matches a little bit more?

Try White LED's

194 Bulb White LED's should do the trick.

Thought this was kind of cool... this road is pitch black besides those lights on the side (which by the way, these headlights are 10x brighter than). This one's larger so you have to click it...
