Default 5k HID fig lights installed

Finally installed my kit from sharphid.com. They are very nice and pretty simple to install. It took me just over an hour and 1/2 as I removed the front bumper and mounted my slim ballast's on the back of the bumper support bar. Used some pop rivits to set them up nice and clean. And then zip tied everything out of the way so it looks clean and simple.

Here are some pics. Keep in mind those are Silverstar headlight bulbs. Its amazing how HIDs make even a nice white halogen light look really yellow. Next up is headlights once I have the money.

Don't mind the dirty car. It just got back from driving to NC and back to FL.

They all work fine for me?..

Anyway, they look good Dustin.. Not too sure why you did the fogs before the headlights, but now I bet you don't even need the headlights at night anymore!. lmao

It works now. Looks great! Your fogs will probably light up the road better than your headlights now.

They actually look kinda green in those pics, weird? They are pure white no coloring in them at all. Just what I was looking for. I did the fogs first because I blew out my silverstar fog light bulbs and said screw it I will try HIDs. That's why I got them first which is kinda weird too.

I can see my fogs way better then I can see where my headlights are now lol.
