Default Headlight/lighting shops

Does anyone know of a shop that does work on headlights other than exact? I want to install my hid kit and fix some other little things with my headlights. I'm looking for a shop that'll do the hid install for around $50 and i am sure such places exist I just can't find them now for some reason. Thanks.

HID installation takes about 5 minutes...Plug and play...pretty straight forward if you take a look at it.

Honestly headlights and electrical work is very tricky and sometimes risky - I would not trust my car to a shop that charges low and promises a lot.

We've done a lot of custom lighting work for our BMW clientele including a Hamann 645ci, a new e92 3-series and right now have a new M6 in the shop getting custom DDE's.

What did you want done?

here's some examples on the 6-series, in case you can't tell we completely opened up his headlights to do custom clear corners and DDE's inside the housings so now it's MUCH brighter! This type of work is not cheap but hey if you can spend $100k on the car then this is pocketchange....
