Thought it was about time to slam some photos on and update a little. I've had my Retro Solutions HID headlights and foglights in for around 3 months now and LOVE them. They are both 6000K. If you are thinking about getting some, DO IT. The difference between these and the stockers is MASSIVE, blew me away, kind of sad I didn't do it sooner!!! This was the final exterior mod and one I did a lot of homework on.
I had Chad Brenneman from Unique Coatings make me some custom headlights, ALL BLACK satin housing, amber reflectors completely tinted and no halos (more to go wrong, don't like the look). Took around 3-4 months to get, delays, etc but combined with the new HIDs, it was WELLLLL worth the wait. The HID kit was plug and play, no bulb out dash light, no flickering, it's TRUELY plug and play, mounts easily and maintains highbeam. The 6000K is crystal white, no yellow at all and just a very subtle hint of a tad of blue, perfect.
Now, IF I remove the headlight covers it still maintains the complete black/stealth look, just not quite as black (obviously) as the headlight covers. The HIDs are that good, I leave the covers on but for early morning roadtrips etc when "image" isn't a concern, I remove them. Anyhow, some photos! The first pic is shit, sent from Chad himself lol, just added it so you get the idea of what they are like. Also added some other pics I took out and about.....
