Nice work on your lights. Are those angel eyes inside or did you paint the rim of the projector?
Does anyone know how to get rid of those lines on the lens? I wouldn't take the chance sanding it down, but I think it'll look clean with that euro clear style.

There's a thread on it if you do a search. Lots of people have done it.

DL, so did you actually diminish the amount of light that your headlights put out? I'm a little confused. It looks nice but my lights are already dim enough, even with the PIAA's I have. I'm looking for MORE light output, not less. Thanks for clarifying

do you mean you have x5 projectors or an hid kit from an x5? if it's projectors, did you do a diy on this mod?
