POST your HIDs!

Post your HID set up!

Do you have HIDs in your fogs?

Did you upgrade to HIDs headlights?

Did you swap your D2R/D2S bulb in your OEM set up to a different temp?

POST you pics!

Most people like using the 8000k. I personally prefer that crisp crystal white.

This is an old pic from April or May of last year...



This is another old pic with ME & VIPCLK320...
