Thanks I took them off till I figure out how to fix them because the shrouds keep pushing the lenses off im going to try and trim off a little bit on the reflectors to see if I can get the projectors to sit in further

Seems like a lot of space around the headlights?

Lol Jk i've been in neons since 04 i've owned 5 so far I guess i'm over them I want to get into a c class Benz or 3 series bmw
Yea...until you talked to me ;) You still considering the benz jess?

I don't know if I'm feelin' the color-match in white...it may be a little bit too much white as opposed to my silver. Maybe try keeping the color-matched shroud and re-painted the turn signal bezel back to black - this might be just enough to show the lamps "belong/was made for" your car, but still keeping your white & black theme you have going on?

thanks guys these are no were near done this was just a mock up to see how i liked them.

im still on the fence about them i guess ill be able to make a full decision once they are both installed.

i had tried just doing to the shroud white and leave everything else black but the white stuck out way too much it looked odd

What if you do the shroud and just the inside of the bezel where the turn signal bulb sits to even it out? IMHO, I dunno if the color-match white is gonna do it...I'm trying to think of different combos that you might like...?

D'you get your brother to fix your phone? Send me a pic of them with just the white shroud - I'm curious as to what it looks like
