And... the inners are LS430's with the bowls cutoff. The outters are the E46 bi-xenon that are fully functional and when i turn on the high beams, the cutoff shield goes down and these are the high beams.

I know this... I'm not that happy with it, but the Cayenne are the biggest shrouds i could find. I didn't wanna make any custom ones because i wanted them chrome.

bkllinGS, here's a helpful hint, right next to the (quote) button there's a ("+) button. You can go down the list of posts and click on the ("+) button each one you want to reply to and hit the (post reply) button on the bottom of the page when you're done. That way you can respond to everyone's post in ONE post instead of having to make multiple posts. Unless you're trying to get your post count up

Did it on my own. I would only do stuff like this on my own car though. I wouldn't want to mess up someone else's headlights.

I am not sure how the headlights are constructed but I am guessing that the middle part comes out? Then you put in place the new projectors? What I mean is that there are pretty decent sized gaps around the projectors. I am sure you spent a decent amount of time on it, but obviously it would look better flush. If you like it, I would leave it. Custom shrouds seem like a PITA to make, so if the light output is good enough for you, I, personally, would just leave it.

As you can see I don't post much. I wasn't trying to get my post count up. Just don't know what I'm doing

Yup.
And, thanks for everyone's compliments. Everyone's approval makes it worth the work.
