A good headlight cleaning and some silverstars are all you need sometimes

You also polished the projector lens though. Those are really silverstars? Imagine what a plug and play HID kit would do for our projectors.

It just proves you don't need 97+ headlights to make a nice projection. The reason they seem to be better IMO is because of the degradation of the 92 lights over time. Once you do what I showed in "that headlight thread" you'll be able to pull off near hid quality light. (without the hid punch of course)

With the limited lighting in the car the contrast blows out. I need to catch it near dusk tonight for some good pics. The flash is too much and the dark is too little. Dusk is always a good time as opposed to say... midnight like last night the one's with the flash on are pretty accurate of the ODO.

Here's the daytime pics of the ODO, ECT, and PNRD with everything else stock (i've been changing things right and left and I'm in between right now). Still a little blown out, but that's all I can do apparently with this camera. I need to whip out the scratch-X on this cover!
