I live in Sweden now so shipping and import tax would kill me. Honestly if I was back in the U.S. I would have already contacted you.

Plus... Modding has become a hobby and really wanted to do this myself but don't have much time and with only 1 car so can't really afford a day without my car at the moment.

Our cars look good together - we should do a proper photoshoot somewhere futuristic

SoCal people have been lucky to have Simon locally available for some time now. Here in NYC area, there aren't any people I'd trust to do this job aside from DK. There are a couple of people and shops offering this service, but none of them actually own an E60. Again, DK get the edge, since they are probably one... well, two, really of the most consistent advanced modders on this forum in the past 3+ years

Little known fact: nomis_nehc is actually a team of tiny people who populate Simon's brain. These tiny people are all former scientists and engineers that were shrunk by the aliens from another dimension, so Simon could provide headlight hook-up services to all superior humans in the Western Hemisphere

Conclusion: Simon is an alien ninja

But these look good on your ride.

Just looking at these shots some more: those blacked out heads make the Orions and eyebrows look like there's nothing else inside the headlight. Nice look too, but I still like the detail of my non-blacked out headlights. And the Euro overlays are making all the difference too, but completely wiping out the orange. I think I may be in the market for new "invisible" bulbs all around though, could use some more light.
