Finally installed my new headlights after an extremely long 3 days wait 
. They are Type-S headlights with clear diffusers that were smoked out.
Ack is the man!

Hey Ack,
Loving the headlights and cut-offs. Have gotten props on them already. Wife took t3i with her so may have to just take some p&s photos tomorrow for you until I can get better quality.
The zkw-r's make a world of difference.
Happy customer right here and you should be getting that box in a couple days.

I can do that to your s tails and keep the chrome bezel but I would also need to provide the clear brake diffuser from the base.

I like those tail lights.. how much would that be? Do I need to send you the light first or do you have them in stock.. these are nice. I want those and also considering some blacked out headlights as well

Hey Ack, what did you use to tint the inserts black? I'm planning on turning my tail lights into these but am hesitant because these look dark as hell and if they don't have enough light output, ill get pulled over. I read that niteshades is good but with all sprays, it can get sketchy.

^^...I use niteshade but I spray layer after layer to match each side. I then make sure (if the customer wants dark) that ample light is still able to shine through. I have used niteshade for years and no problems. You have to know how to spray it or it'll look flat and run which can become a huge problem because removing it isn't easy. If you don't remove it all some parts will be darker than others and become blotchy..

AckTL05 did my headlights on my car. I had emailed him ahead of time and he answered all my question promptly and was very thorough. I received the headlight fast and they were very well packed. Bruce did a great job on the headlight, they were exactly what I wanted at an affordable price. Thanks Bruce!

New Tails
I bought a used pair of ACKTL05 lights from a fellow AZiner, which arrived yesterday. From the first bolt to the last, it took me right at two hours to complete the job. Had I not had to remove my custom sub-box, which is similar to the Uncald4, I probably could have done it in less than 90 minutes. I must say that rewiring the LED clip was not nearly as bad as I was expecting. The LED boards were also easy to relocate. On the NBP, the red tails just didn't flow with the rest of the car. While not the best pic, here is the final result.

Do the turn signals come through pretty good on ones like these?

I guess i'm not understanding, but despite the tint on the turn signals, it still shines through the same?
Also, are these the same as the ones on the white TL above? It might just be the picture but the ones above look a little darker.

ACK is a beast and will definately be in contact with him since I'm right in Connecticut. everything he does is super clean, certainly have earned his props. btw have heard nothing but good experiences from people who have ordered/paid for his many services

Same darkness. I was just trying to show you that the anthracite TL I posted has the same darkness on the brakes as the turn signal and thats how much light still shines through.
I know we were talking about the rims, but I like them black..

Thanks for clearing that up. I will be getting the PS hose recall done on Tuesday and then I will be contacting you about getting my tails done.
