Hey smeister, can you possibly post a picture of the virgin dog bowl?? Is that a stainless steel one? There are so many choices...also, when you cut the base open, how did you clean up the cut? Or does it hide itself nicely after you install it?

I dont have a pic handy and I couldnt find the exact dog bowl from Petsmart that I use (it is $4.99) but it looks like this one right here from Petsmart but without the sticker and the little rubber trip is black (I toss that rubber strip). I hope this helps.

The cut is hidden by the weather strip I use.

This is the one I used...made by Petzazz......it was the smallest version of that bowl that was available at my Petsmart (with the black rubber lip). It's exactly as smeister described....

If anyone still needs a pic, I've got one on my other computer...will be there in a couple days.

PM smeister for the first question....

Second, the FX35 bulbs are standard D2S bulbs that are connected to an HID ballast. I bought my kit for $140 from George at xenithxenons.com

I just removed it. It's not necessary to hook up. I've been using mine without it for about half a year now.

But you got them already =P

Lets see a mock-up of the dogbowl, projectors and the angel eyes =D

unpainted, just how a layout.

Give everyone the idea of what my headlights will look like (SlimJim lives near me, and will try and copy my looks, my sexy sexy looks)

It look like it fill up the gap between the projector and the shroud. It look very nice.
