Thumbs up FX-R Projection Bi-Xenon Headlights

So I've invested some money into custom headlights. Done some research and didn't really find anything that I liked.

The thought of a HID kit with the out stock headlight reflector, always stood out in my mind as me getting pulled over for blinding on coming traffic including bypassing police cars. So I finally did it. Went out and spent to money. Now I'm just waiting on FedEx

Let me know what you guys think...

The 1st picture includes all the parts....
*Infiniti FX-R Bi-Xenon Projectors, American Muscle Dark Smoked Headlights, wires, ballasts, D2S bulbs, E46-R Shrouds.. the whole family..

The other 3 pictures are of what the final product came out looking like. I requested the shroud be painted black to match...

Other than that I ordered 2 pairs of stealth bulbs for the turn signal / park lights.

$775 total without shipping..
(for everything : projectors & install)
Since this was his 1st mustang headlight retrofit, my guy said he'd give me a break so it might cost you a little bit more if you ask em to do up yours. Just keep this in mind.

From what the retro-fitter told me, he would be shipping everything out, well, earlier today or tomorrow morning..

Thanks!

I'm super excited to get them.
They should arrive tomorrow at some point. I can't stand the wait. Its driving me crazy as you can imagine.

I've always wanted projection headlights. The thought of having them on a mustang sparked my interest.

The idea of projection headlights all started one day while I was driving through the neighborhood next to the one I live in, following a Lexus RX. It was a little foggy if my memory serves me but I was blown away at the cutoff beam, the color and how precise the beam was when the car was taking turns. It looked sooo sweet. That made it clear I needed have the same setup ... lol

I'm guessing it'll give my car a more aggressive look. I'm also considering having a retrofit projection fog setup too. I've been talking to the same guys who helped me pick out the projectors for my headlights and after I sent them a few pictures of the amount of clearance behind the stock Roush fog lights, they said no problem setting me up with a pair of TSX projectors.

I don't know if you've ever seen a car with dual projectors but I love the way it looks. That for sure, will make the car more aggressive looking. I'm just trying to figure out what color I want for the fogs if I'm going to follow through that Idea.

I've already gone w/ the standard 5000k in the headlights which can change at any point. I might go 3000k for the fogs. I kinda like that look. I'm not sure. I may just got to 6000k or 8000k. I can't decide.

Gonna have to do some serious thinking
