I can finallllllly seeee!
So have you guys ever wondered why our bi-xenon don't have great output as BMW/Lexus/Audi. Well I did you guys a favor and did a little work on my headlights. Buddy of mine, Rich from HID Illusionz, finally decided I am tired of the crappy lighting. I really couldn't see past 10-15 away from my car. Did a little research that our E55 Hella projectors probably have the worst lens cause they are "frosty" not clear. Painted the housing a gunmetal/titanium color because my new look for spring is silver/gunmetal accents. Let the pictures do the talking!

I didn't say anything about my headlights. I said the projector in the headlight itself from factory is crappy and everyone else knows that. Please look at the link that komp55 provided and you will know what I am talking about.

Have you thought about any lens spacing? or custom cutoff shields?
