Impressive.

But I am not a fan of the ridges circling the two projector lenses.

Cool idea, but the fitment of the highbeam angel eyes suck w/ that gap. I installed some of those $53 ebay angel eyes in Sobi's X5 and they we're a perfect fit w/ maybe a 1/8th of gap at most all the way around and you don't have the ugly black shrink wrapped ends where the angel eye wiring is.

Any comment on the cost for this upgrade, or is this a cost-prohibitive one time thing since it took them almost 40hrs.

A smoked turn signal waffle would fit even better IMO

Great idea, best OEM headlight transformation yet
I think you should get projector fog lights to match the rest of your lights.

For anyone of interest, FREE OEM angel rings and OEM fiber optic leads/bulb holder. No bulbs. Doing a little cleanup. If anyone has any real interest/need in them, PM me. Offer valid for those that really do have a ~intent~ to use them.

I just noticed that your foglights aren't projectors...I don't think I've ever seen them like that before.
