They will. I'm also going to be doing quite a few GSs and a 97+ model ES very soon in the next few weeks so be on the lookout for that. I'll post some write ups. Also, look out for a MAzda 6 retro. I can't wait. We just got a new Sony Digicam for my sis. I can snag that for a nice writeup feature or two! Man its been a while since I retroed (3 months is too long in my book hahaha). I've been busy with work and personal life etc. But I'm back fellas. Blkonblk, you're doing an awesome job as well. The ____ store has served you well!!!! Hahaha

Rom Ti will have to forgive you for that one. hahaha

The _____ store. hehehe

Im still waiting to get a pair of unblemished A4 bezels to pop on these things. Everything else is done. I went over the flat black with one thats glossy, it looks incredible! I'll set up another photobucket account and post the pics from there so they wont suspend me like they did on the last one for too much traffic LOL.

I find it uncanny how so many of you have these lights just laying around the garage...



Awesome job on the lights man. Seriously.

If the lexus engineers were on here- you'd probably have an offer letter at your door the next day.

no problem guys. as long as you guys know the rules and able to follow them, i have no problem of you guys showing what you do. me personally i want even more information lightings, hid, retrofit, etc... going on here, these are all good stuff. if you guys can share more tips and tricks, that's awesome, or some instructions or steps, that's even better.

keep up the good work guys, i always like to see all these stuff

Ive been out of town for the past month on a extended business trip. I sold this set that was here without a chance to take pics of the finished product. I do however, have another one I started working on before I left and will try and finish this weekend or early next week. It is also has X5 projectors and blacked out housing.
