So after about 500 miles of using the eBay projector housings with OEM halogens, I've found that they're too dim for non-HIDs. Usable, but not as bright as I want. I still have my OEMs and I'll likely put them back on.

Installed cabin air filters today. Surprised I didn't have any. Lots of sand came out.

looks good, but the profile on the tires seems a tad too big

eh it's a pretty mild but significant drop. (left pic might be a bad example because that's a 215/40/18 tire)

Did you just stick them onto the headlight itself or open them up and install on the bottom?
I love the color of your car btw

Atop. I reverted to my OEM housings though, so no LEDs at the moment. Also I think they were slightly tacky.
