I kind of wish I would have left my reflector untouched now, looks awesome. Not digging my nightshaded ones anymore, if I ever crack them open again, I will be taking some paint thinner to them.

A worth while mod that ppl fail to do is the ZKW-R clear lense swap before they seal their headlights. It doesnt cost much and only takes 2 minutes to do with a flat head screw driver. Itll improve the sharpness of your light output. It makes night driving a pleasure

this is what you should have done

You'd be crazy not to do the lense swap.... If you've got time on your hands then give this a crack. FX-R projectors make the OEM projectors look silly. More than happy to help you or any one with tech support.

I was the one that guided this member to do the retrofit

Honestly don't be. I've done this on my 350 and my Evo now and it's really not that difficult. Patience is key tho, and I actually "cheated" and didn't even remove my HID's and lens this time around. Saved me from having to deal with annoying pieces in side and screwing my beam pattern!
