Default I finally joined the 2012 LED club

UPDATED: PICS ON PAGE 2


Thats right. A fellow member OhioIS350 was kind enough to sell me a extra set he had bought for a friend for only $1100 and helped me with the install and did most of the work. Here are some teaser crappy camera phone quality pics. I'll get some better shots tomm during the day. Also for those of you that don't know me or my car you can view the rest of my project at the link below. Thanks for viewing. Next on the mods list is JDM visors & and 2012 front bumper and f sport lip!

I have 6000k HIDS. I didnt have those on in the pics bc the brightness was too much for my camera phone to capture, but if u are talking about the LEDS they are intensely bright. I have it powered 100% day and night

Its not as bad as it seems bc I run a business from home and I have a part time job 5 min down the street and the gym I goto is 5 min down the street from there. I don't really drive anywhere except from sat- mon when I'm not working so a gas of tank usually last me a week and a half to two weeks regardless of what my mpg is. and I like how this thread is more so about my mpg than my newly acquired headlights lol
