Replaced my two bulb euro turn signals with 2 bulb jewel ones. They are a little yellow though i know, but i might have a way to fix it, then it will be complete.

Nice! The projector looks good, looks like a clean install. Which one did you use ?

Yea I love the way that looks, that might be my only winter project.

I really like the lower bulb in the corners, but I don't know how I feel about the upper bulb just yet.
I would need to see it in person to really tell if I like it.
But either way, your front end must look sleek as hell.

I dont even want to figure it out, but here goes

Projectors - $100
Lenses - $120
Shrouds - $30
Clear lenses for e55s (for color) - $80
HIDs - $80
Jewel turn signals - $70
Turn signal bulbs - $15

about $495, but you could save $80 not buying the clear lenses for the e55s and they would appear the same

The upper bulb is a white LED and matches the HIDs quite well. I wasnt really concerned with how the LED looked in the lense, but its hardly noticeable.

Heres two overall pics

UV curing is the idea Aaron thought of.

I picked a pretty circuitous route and arguably cheated slightly, but I'm going to get there

I hate to be picky, but now you have to repaint your hood and front bumper. :D
