The shrouds I used are OEM E46 from an M3 headlight. These are the only ones that have the "XENON" logo embossed.

DONT mistake them for:
* E46-R (Normal Version) shrouds or
* E46-R (Extended Version) shrouds

R = Replica

ah, didn't know the replica's didn't have the XENON on them

http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...I/image-24.jpg are by far my favorite. the silver shroud and clear lense look so clean mixed with the JDM signals

Did my headlight mod yesterday.. I think it looks really good.. I think i did mess up and not use high heat paint but im gonna have to take them apart again anyways because for some reason my passanger light seems brighter then the other... The beam just seams more concentrated on the passenger side and doesnt have that blue line on the top of the beam like the driver side does.. Not sure why??

^^ did you remove the 9006 bulb from the projector?? If it's not seated correctly it can dramatically decrease brightness. I get this alot when I'm modding ppls HLs... 2mm makes a big difference

I did remove the bulbs because i needed to replace them since one was newer then the other.. But the light was brighter even before i replaced the bulbs. I will go outside and check right now..

Ok so i removed the headlight and found out that i didnt put the bulb in correctly.. I fixed it and it fixed my problem.. now i just have to get a new passanger headlight because my driver side is brighter now but i know its just cause the passanger lense is really jacked..

Thanks a lot for you help man..

I'd love to do my lights black if it wern't for me not having anything to be able to open em: much less me messing it up and letting it condense when it's cold...
