hello Guys,
THE UPDATE:
I am just comming from the Garage, the body is painted all BLACK even the bumper and the skirts. The car looks great! Wil post pics tomorrow.
The prices: The lights cost me around $325.00 in UAE. This was the front, corners and the tail lamps. The grille was about $60.00
LNKPRKSOLDIER: $5000?????? Thats WAY too much. If you want, I can ship those to you for less!

ONE NOTE: I read on this site somewhere on another post that in the US there is a separate connector for these (4-pin) and the Euro version has a 6 -pin. MY car has BOTH! the 4-pin just hangs there in my case. ALSO SOMEONE SAID THAT ONLY 3 of the FOUR lamps will light in the US... In my case, ALL FOUR light up and its hella bright than stock. THE REAR END LOOKS A LOT BETTER WITH THOSE TAIL LIGHTS.
hope I answered all your questions.

Yea those four pin connectors you see are probably for the headlight washer system.
Useless if you ask me...

YEAH, I guess so... Cause I had the washer system taken out. NO SNOW HERE! 
BNut I guessed they are for the headlights, cause the wires are comming from the same heat shrink as the headlight wires. So I thought...

Lol, I wrote 500 , not 5 grand. Anyways... Here is some conversion I found...
United Arab Emirates UAE Dirham 0.2722
So 325 UAE would be like 80 bucks... HELL YES I would take you up on that offer for that price. Shipping would not be an issue as it shouldn't be THAT much. Now I need to see the beam pattern for those lights. And Xenon? Wow , I am creaming myself over here. hahaha.

Um guys...
Sorry to break it, but I remember putting the '$' sign before the 325. That is standard for US currency, not UAE (its AED). I paid AED 1200 for the whole set (US $ 325).
And yeah, the 5000 was a TYPO. I know just lights won't be that much.
Anyways, if anyone still wants them, just lemme know.

Yes I did see the "$" and was just hoping that it was a mistake. Well 325 for xenon projectors isn't that bad. You must update with further pictures and try to find out the shipping cost to california. If you need an exact address, just pm me.

PEOPLE, I GOT THE PIX...
But I will not post them till tomorrow, as I took them in the garage and my baby was too dirty to be posted here. You know mechanics do not like to wash yoru cars!
I get the car back tomorrow (Finally!) so expect the pics late evening tomorrow (UAE Time)
For all those who want to order, just PM me, so I can make a list. The WHOLE SET (Front and rear lamps and corners with lamps, except corners) is US$325.00 No taxes in this country. I will let you know the shipping individually.

Hate to break it to you guys, but the projectors are halogen, not HID or Xenon. BUT, these would be a good base to do a HID conversion, you would just need to locate a suitable HID projector to replace the current Halogen reflector.
Once the price comes down on these, they will be my next retro-fit HID project.
