S 430 (W220)
I interested in ordering those halogen projector upgrades. Ive heard so many different opinions re the non oem lights. What is the real deal? And, what is auto leveling. I'm told the non OEM light are non auto leveling. What is this. Might be a dumb question but I don't know. Can anyone dial me in? I know the Bi-Xenon or HID may be a bit mor involved, but what abou the Halogen projector lamps?

I heard the exact same things you've heard about the non OEM headlights, so I had my OEM's taken apart and painted a gloss black at a small Glendale spot called Rego Sport.

i was wondering who is gonna be the first to put the black headlights on....there are a few on ebay but unsure of the quality and outcome. props for trying it out and i think i agree with everyone on the suggestion of removing the chrome rings. that should make it look more aggressive and cleaner. now dump that car on the lowest setting

Thanks for the feedback, keep it coming guy!

what size wheels are those? and how much finger gap do you have in front and rear if you have any at all?
