Bi-Xenons on my Coupe

I just installed my lights and 2005 fog lights on my coupe this morning. Only took about 2 hours, and it was ALOT easier than we thought. Remember to email Gaston to get your set before this deal runs out, dont forget to mention that Mike brabusCoupe sent you , so he sets you up.

Thanks again. I replaced the bulbs with the PIAA bulbs to match the Xenon. Did you replace the other bulb on your bi-xenons on yours?

Also citron did you modify the 2005 grille yourself? I want it, but im afraid i wont be able to make it fit right.
