Cleared my headlights and current state

After waiting months of contemplating to do the job myself, I found a member on here (4-A-TL-B) to do the job. I couldn't be happier. I get more stares around town with my new lights, and having these zkw-r lenses do help a lot especially living here in VA.

Thanks for the replies!

And yes I have switchbacks with the lights. I use my turn signals more often now.

I do live in richmond, all the TLs I see are driven by people in their 40s through 60s. And once in a blue moon I will spot a nice TL who might possibly be on Azine.

I have plenty of mods next for the TL. Lowering and aspec lip kit are on its way!

This picture just shows how poor the OEM Osram bulbs are (I am thinking you still have those rather than aftermarket bulbs). They have colorshifted and have lost most of their intensity due to years of use. I highly recommend upgrading to more potent Philips 85122+ bulbs to really unleash the power of the TL projector with ZKW-R lenses.

^^^ I changed the bulbs to 6000k. They are really bright. I took the pic under a parking light which was really bright aswell. Some day I will switch back to the OEM osrams or buy the phillips you mentioned to unleash the true power of my headlights.
