Looks like you will only have room for one pair of projectors. So complete parts will set you back 350ish depending on what you wanna spend , and then whatever the labor cost is depends on how many toys you want..

Thise look sweet but im looking to spend under a grand...i dont really need the hi beam projectors and i decided the LED DRL's wont look right...just the black chrome finish and low beams will be enough. What kind of projectors should i use? 350 for parts is totally doable. What abou projectors for the fogs thr big LED bar is overkill for me

The led bar is my lil project lol , i just had those pics laying around on hand...

Option out this kit the way you want.

Grab some Depo Headlights and do em yourself , they are easy with aftermarket headlights. Dont bother even trying with your stockers.

What kind of bulb do you guys take?

Low and fog are H11, hi is H9

Thanks for all the help man. Ive heard bad things about the quality of the aftermarket lights...the depo's are good tho?

You guys have seperate lows and his , they looked like one unit too me.
I cant comment on the output of depos as i have never ran any , but for retrofitting purposes they are ideal , they open up the best. The stockers use this shit called permaseal , and its nearly fucking impossible to open up.

If your doing the lowbeam h11s id change my reccomendation to this kit. It wont quite be a bolt in , but it should be easier than the d2s model..

Are your foglights already projectors?

Gotcha with opening the headlights up.

The fogights are projectors I guess, but they suck, and I already have Philips hid's in them as well as the low beam.

I'm all for DIY, but I'm not great at being artsy, and I want these lights to be killer.

Phillips doesnt make rebased HIDs.
Odds are its the projector as opposed to the hids though. You can try some hella micro de's im thinking about swapping my fogs to those projectors...

You will need to change the bulbs accross to an H3 though (not an h3c)

Well heres JB's site.

He did an awesome job on my headlights , tell him Colin with the grand prix sent you his way.

Where are you located?

I've had a set of Mercedes benz c63 AMG headlights sitting in my garage begging to be town down fir a retrofit. Can't decide id I want to do them on my titan or the wife's camaro though. I would be willing to part with them if you're interested. $500shipped for the pair of complete lights.

If you're local, I would be willing to do the work for you.
