So, Haven't back read much because it looks as if its been a minute since anyones mentioned it but what is a good trusted source to purchase a pre-retrofitted pair of headlights from? I HIDWERKS used to be the place to go a couple years ago but their website frankly looks un-maintained so IDK if i really trust it. I know most of you are going to recommend building my own and trust me if I had time I would but thats just not the case. Anyways thanks in advanced!

Yup. I make enough retros but the prices are 100$ more over what I'm willing to pay for it. This forum does not have many buyers. That's why I do some work under a legal business.

Sold my retros to a local guy today. Hate to see them leave, love to watch them reverse out of my garage

Onto the next set:
D2S projectors
E55r shrouds (same as the last ones)
Hopefully carbon fiber hydrodipped housings
3/4 style halos (where the northeast 1/4 of the pass side and northwest 1/4 of the drivers side halo are painted over) to give em that mean look
Tinted sidemarkers
And switchbacks from TRS that look siiick.

Have some of it already gotta order the rest of the stuff and get it all underway, spring is upon us!

So the salvage yard here wants $320 for a set of slightly damaged headlights. I think I'll pass on that one.
