Beautiful!
Did you do the retro yourself or did you get someone else to do it?
If so, can you share your contact?

I saw all of their retro fits yesterday at a local meet. They are all really nice. I was the only 2GS without HID's. I have to join the club now.
My HIR light output was pathetic compared to their lights.

Hehe, I have HIR's in the fogs. I will probably go with LS430's once I find a good deal on them.

How about posting up some beam pattern pics from that black GS with the retrofit?
I don't doubt the LS projector are nice....but I want to see how the beam pattern looks like when out of a GS housing.

I will have some pictures soon, working on a pair for my own GS3 right now. Here is a sneak peek.
BTW this is how the GS looked like before, as you know the lens is infamous to go yellow and go dull. I had to spend an hour on each lens to refinish it and bring back its luster without using sand paper or chemicals. Results are obvious, shown in the first posted picture.
