Hid kit looks good, get some matching fogs and your set. By the way is your car flat black?

I bought 2 seperate kits off ebay a hid set up this came with no headlights just the wires and lights . So next i looked for a headlight making sure it was a glass lens no plastic because of the heat from the lights . As far as hooking up the lights in the car its not hard . The lights came instuctions the hardest part was just laying out the wires and finding a place to put the ballest . took about a hour or so for everything .

The liights are true HID lights not projector lights (headlights) they are 10k brilliant blue . I got everything off ebay . When your looking just be really picky the chaeper the lights and wiring then you wont get great results . I had to buy a cheap light set up with projector bulbs to get the glass housing to put the hid lights inside of . The fogs are projector lights those where easy mostly plug and play. Unfortunatly i deleted the sellers i got it from didnt think i would need them again. Oh and thanks about the satin black
