So I havent made much progress in awhile. Thought Id update my thread on what I completed today. Ordered some E-46 shrouds from The Retrofit Source.

On the car
Gotta black out the housing of the turn signals as well but I'm trying to figure out how to open them. Doesnt seem the same as the headlights. Might have to cut them open with a dremel and re-seal. Not sure yet. But it will happen
NICE. Once those signals are done it'll look 1000 times better, it just looks off right now, but we know you'll get it. Just make sure ya seal them up nice and tight.
So turn signals are done. Alot harder than I expected it to be. Didnt come out as well as I expected it to. When cutting with the dremel is melted some of the plastic material so when I tried to realign them back together to seal it, there was gaps. So I guess I'll just end up buying a set of pre-done black turn signals off ebay or somewhere and just use those. But until I can source a seller who will sell the turn signals only, these will have to do.
Damn just finished a grueling session working on my car. But now my fogs run independently of my headlights and I finally got my fx35 bixenon high beam function to work now. Id love to see ppl high beam me now
