Well one of my headlight bulbs blew out so I ordered 6000k HID Headlights and Foglights from John. Just thought I'd post some pictures of how they look. I forgot to take before and after pictures so there's only after pictures. Pictures were taken with an old point and click camera so the pictures aren't that great and I couldn't capture the light very well.

Thanks for looking.

Here's the ballast's

Were you by any chance sitting at the light off of Malvern and Gilbert in Fullerton on Sunday?

Nice job Nick, see now you have one less excuse not to join us more often. You can SEE now!!!! That is why I didn't recognize you until you left Friday - saw your car and the gears clicked.

That was probably Jason, his car is nice and low like mine now, his is probably a little lower than mine.

Yeah, just as long as we get you to come out more often.

That was me. I think John's is at 26.5 from the ground and I am at 26 inches. I was at 26.5 too but I wanted to go a bit lower. That extra half inch makes a big difference.
