I appreciate it! I'm loving the volt hid foglights you sold me. I just installed a set on a friends car. He contacted me and asked which kit to buy and I told him I wouldn't install unless he bought the volt kit lol.

Looks good! Did you put Bi-xenons or just added a projector to the high beam?
Haha! It's a scary process doing the headlights and I can't say I ever wanna do it again. I have my extra set of headlights sitting around. I thought about doing them and then selling them. Not sure yet.

Yeah I got my car buffed by a local guy and am very pleased with the results. Just buy the $200 emblemless chrome grille off of ebay and get it painted.

Yeah I used the morimoto mini H1. Glass housings and was able to offer $100 shipped and get them. You do have to dremel out your factory housing a little bit to get them to thread through because the base is short. You should do it and you can call me with any questions. I baked the headlights for 250 degrees and 7 minutes.

How did you get rid of the orange side marker in the headlight? I'm blacking out my housing tomorrow and was wondering about that.

I went to Home Depot and bought the lighting panel. Then I traced and dremeled them out. Call me tomorrow if you need help.

I appreciate it! I bought them off of eBay. They are the Morimoto Mini H1. They were listed at $120 shipped and I offered $100 shipped and they agreed. I remember seeing your car with the Aimgain kit on one of the threads. Do you have any updated pics?

Thanks man! I wasn't able to get ahold of my mechanic who was going to paint them so I'll probably do it tomorrow.

Haha, she's driving it, was actually in ATL like last week and someone backed into her. Kinda bothered but it'll probably go back to Bucky to fix that portion....if it's not one thing it's another.

Just a sneak peek of my new fitment. Currently running 7 degrees camber on the rear and 4 on the front. Gotta give a shout out to Brownman88/Kay for helping me dialing in my specs for fitment. Couldn't have done it without you. Without further adieu...
