Default Veritek's (Bing) new HID's

Well, we put together some funds and gave Bing a set of HID's for his birthday. Happy B-Day man! here are a few pics that'll walk you through the process. The difference is night and day. You can see his HID's in action at night here - https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...09#post2305809 - hope you enjoy!

The HIDS looks a bit more dim then regular HIDs. And you also need to adjust your kit or headlight so it fits better.

yeah, it's not as bright as Stock HID's and anything was better than what was there before. There are slight problems with the lights aligning because the car was in a front end collision before purchase. We are in the process of fabricating something to align the headlight correctly. The kit is Origin, and there are few of those in our area so the look is different but once again, the headlights aren't properly installed and will be fixed soon. thanks for the input Idrewfelix. SoCalSC4, thanks for that comment, I thought that as well when he whipped it out to prop the hood. He has a Shelby Scoop integrated into his hood so there's a lot of added weight with that install. I love the way it looks. I told him he should bring that prop to all the shows! Your car is amazing BTW!!!

I was going to ask you what happened with the passenger headlight fitment with the bumper and hood.... THEN i noticed what you used to hold up your hood and I don't feel like dying anytime soon.

haha thanks guys, guess bing's been busy so he hasn't had a chance to chime in here. but yeah, we all agree about the bumper here in georgia but it looks different non the less. there had to be some mods done because there were originally fog light openings on the bumper but the installer opted to delete them.
yeah seloc meets up twice a month and our main event is SSN or Sizzlin SELOC Nights. i'm sure if you pm bing (Veritek) or myself (CarbonGS) we'll hit u back as soon as we can. i don't have an SC but i am always chillin out with bing. thanks again for all the comments. i am sure he will be happy with the outcome.
