FS: Deal of a Lifetime!!! HID Retrofit $250 + stock lights

My car was broke into this morning. I'm not gunna live my life wondering when the next punk kid is gunna decide to smash my window and find nothing to steal. So I'm parting it out.

Anyways, onto the retros. $250 + Stock or black painted headlights. Yeah, i know it's cheap.

Retro-fit inlcudes...

E55 Bixenon Projectors (Haven't hooked up the high beams, they work, but I had the wiring flipped so they were on when the switch wasn't and vise versa.)

Phillips 6000k Bulbs (They might be whiter, that's the best guestimate I can get right now, my car is at the shop for repairs).

D2S Ballasts (Unkown hours, but haven't failed or showed signs of any failing yet).

Pictures...







PM with any offers or post them up here. I'm probably gunna trade the car in for something a little sportier and keep it stock looking.

Yes I made those. The projectors are from a BMW 7 Series, the ballasts and bulbs are from a nissan Altima I believe. The shrouds are from a BMW 5 Series and then to cover the back part of the projector I used some sheet metal I just bent around the back rounded part and used a hole pit to cut out a 2.5" hole, the flared the edges up enough to slide the projector through.

This picture might help you a little with how brighter they are...

not to be too mean, but there is one guy locally interested. If he does purchase them, he gets dibs just because I wouldn't have to ship them and risk damaging them.

As of now he is broke and there is a good chance he can't.

Also, these are the only lights I have, and the car is my daily driver... so I would need to recieve lights before I ship mine out.

I'm not gunna rip anybody off, you could ask around. I have sold some stuff to a few people who can vouch for me. I just had my car broken into, so I know what it feels like to get screwed.
