Looking good man, you decide to keep the TEs over the Meisters? (Good choice, if you did).

Just one thing... after everything you've done, the trunk finisher is still silver. Get it painted immediately!!

Remember:
I have many combinations with these lights since the leds and angel eyes have independent switches.

Haha, that car has a serious identity crisis...Acura? Audi? BMW?

But seriously though, the headlights look absolutly fantastic. You've managed to make us all envious once again.

I did them ....weeks ago? lol

I used tabs which were 90 degrees so the leds shine straight forward. It's on the bottom of the housing, nothing is on the lens.

Dont mind him^^ EDIT: dont mind the guy above him ^^

I think the stretch is sexy. its not a harcore stretch. ull be surprised how better ur car will handel with the stiffer sidwalls now being stretched.

Looks good.

Honestly If I were you I would PC the whole rim a solid color. Polished lip on the TEs (le37) dont look good IMO
