Hell yes, I would take the fogs. The blinkers, not so much.

I have never heard of this guy. He is legit?

for the ppl that ask if it fits sedan, this is for coupe only. Sedan bi-xenon are way easier to come by, plus there are always depo projector headlight avalible in ebay that sell for 300 bucks only.

tozfeekum, brabusccoupe, and sasprissa have all dealt with him in the past and have said good things... you can ask any of them (its the first time i'm dealing with him though... but he seems legit to me)

E,
e-mail him directly...
I'm sure he can get a bunch of other stuff, without having to go through a group-buy every single time.

yeah it seems like he has alot available... just thought that if people are doing bixenons... then they would want the fogs and mirror blinkers to complete the facelift... at this point anyone is welcome to go ahead and order their bixenons, i just wanted to wait and see if he could offer a better deal for those interested in doing the entire facelift.

i emailed him the list of members signed up... but since i dont know any of your names i just sent the list of screennames. so be sure to tell him who you are on this forum.

he hasn't given me a final price yet... the tentative price was 995 a set... originally he said back in 2005 he was selling them for 449.00 each (or about 900 a set). its the same price that is posted in picture link in the group buy thread.

he said there was a "15%" increase since then and the price was 519 each. When i mentioned a group buy he said the LEAST he could do was 995 a set for a group buy, but that price wasn't confirmed. he is supposed to call me this morning for a final price. i will let you all know

Here is my car. Not quite sure what the car color is called.



This pic is from a slight downhill decline.

Maybe it is Obsidian BLue?

Anyone know how to tell paint codes?

Well, looks like I'm paying this a.m., and hopefully it ships.

I'm off to work.

Man, maybe I could fedex and do the install this weekend.

Once I get them in, anyone know what I have to change on the computer to get them to fire?

Update

I just ordered both bixenons and foglights...

Gaston dropped the price a little to $949 shipped for bixenons (he first quoted it at $995)

He is also selling the updated '05 foglights for $84 each or $168 a set.

He has bixenons in stock now and can ship today, but foglights won't come in until next week. There is a limited quantity on foglights, but he can get more in if there is interest.

what i did is i took it to the dealer, and told him that i have a set of OEM bi-xenons that i bought from them, and i am going to do the install and need "xenon=present" for them to work. Worked like a charm but they charged me 75 ive heard other dealers do it for a lot cheaper.I have been looking at mine and they're a little bit scratched up
