Retrofit headlight pics! *56K beware!*

I bought smeister's retrofited projector headlights that he had made for his own car and sold due to going back to stock.
The mailman showed up literally as I was walking out the door, was super excited!!!!!!!

Had some other things to do, but got them installed late this afternoon and LOVE THEM.
They are Infinity FX35 clear projectors retrofitted into OEM headlights painted black, with OEM FX35 4300k HID's.

Have you ever driven a car with a retro? The light output is amazing compared to reflective housing HID's.
It is a lot of money, thats why dealers charge there $900-1500 extra for them.
