Thanks for all the compliments guys! I actually went through a couple of different setups before I got the one I liked. I'll probably replace the stock 4300K bulbs w/ 6000K bulbs in the future. Although I heard the 6000K is not as bright as the 4300K. I'll try to take more pics where you can actually see the car, hahahahaha. I'm still new to taking pictures and still playing around w/ all the different lighting techniques.

I'm not too sure how it would look w/ the amber reflector. Since the reflector is plastic, maybe it won't reflect that much orange? There are these bulbs you can get from ebay. You could try these out first before paying $50 for a set of solaris bulbs.

They are pretty cheap. I bought a pair before I got the solaris from bimmian. However, they sent me blue ones instead of the chrome ones. I didn't really like them. They were not "xenon bright" as advertised. That is why I went w/ the solaris bulbs. And to answer your last question, yes I did get the rear and the sides too, silver/white for the sidemarkers and silver/amber for the rear. Don't forget to post pictures.

The stock still has a hint of yellow. If you look closely, you will see. Second, it was $20 off if you buy the whole set. So it only cost me $5 more to get the pair of rear bulbs.
