You already did

P.S. Do you live in South Africa? If so, I have extra set of headlights if you just want to buy those, makes more sense.

I have an extra set of bi xenon head lights for my E55 and was wondering how long would it take if I sent them to you for lens and paint. Also what do you think shipping would be?

I am going to get another set done so if you want to sell me yours since you have extra set or I can give you mine afterwards to get done whatever you need. I will pay you to "borrow" them.

What you got in mind. The extra ones aren't perfect. Nothings broken. It's just the outer plastics lens is not as clear as I want it to be. But I can send them to you no problem. Just let me know what else it would take to get the other stuff done and returned.
