I made these aluminum-composite covers to hide the brackets and xenon wire.
The matte black covers the background pretty good.
Testfitting. I don't know yet how far out the projector goes 'cause the leveling settings are just for testing.

Finished it last night. It still needs a bit of adjustment especially on the drivers side.
I had the front bumper repainted. Next up is rear bumper which will be painted next week.
I have an error code P0135, O2 Sensor Heater Circuit (Bank 1 Sensor 1).
What does that mean?
Faulty sensor or something worse?

Will probably cost about $50. If ur doing that retro project then changing the sensor should be easy for u. Just jack up the car locate the sensor, unplug & unscrew. It's easy. I think so...

I asked the price from a few Toyota authorized services and it's gonna cost ~$380 to just buy the part. Then there's the installation which I guess will be another $200-300.
So maybe I'll just order it from ebay and install it myself.
I took the car to MOT last friday and it passed! Finally I have license plates on it and I can drive it legally.
One problem though, when I go over 50mph the steering starts to vibrate and when I brake it vibrates a hell of a lot more. I'm thinking there's only two options: either the wheels alignment is off or the wheels are unbalanced.

Lol yea its suppper easy to swap out o2 sensors. After you so it though either use an obd2 scanner to clear the chooses our just disconnect and reconnect the negative on the battery.
