Looks great, makes me wanna order me a pair too . One question tho. Are those factory xenon headlights (4000k) or did you get 8000k xenon headlights too?

No, all you have to do is to get the 8000k and swap the 4000k bulb.

The lights look great soc_fans. What was the problem you were having with the HID foglights? Did everything get squared away? I was thinking of doing HID foglights as well to match my upgraded 6000K lowbeams but I think I'll settle for PIAA bulbs....

Thanks tony! Hmm.. well there's some problems with the Idrive whenever i start the car. To prevent the problem, i have to on the foglight first before turning on the engine. (It's when you turn your key once not twice). Otherwise, there will be a warning saying foglight malfunction, but it can just be ignored.. will not do any harm to any electrical at all. I will show you the problem the next bay area meet if there's a chance..
