No, both are chrome. I wasn't able to find a black finish p/n but if someone does I'd love to have it.

I'm curious now to see if anyone has ever replaced the H3 Fog Headlamp (we use 'em as DRLs as well in Canada) with an HID P'nP kit like this?

If so how well did it work out? I'm thinking better vis during the day is not a bad thing and if it were to give better visibility in fog that would be pretty sweet as well.

Default Question for those that have converted from H5s...

With this D-Zug HID kit, do you retain the metal bracket attached to the back of the H5 assembly?

C'mon guys, we know u got 'em! Almost 10 sets out there, surely someone's got some pix? (Thanks for all of you that ordered BTW)

Well, might as well show them on our car, s/p recent suspension overhaul.

For any of you in Raleigh/Chapel Hill area, we will be at cars and coffee this weekend.

Glad you guys are going to make it to Cars & Coffee! With the weather we've been having lately, we should see a huge turn-out. The RSR sounds fricken awesome and will turns some heads as we roll into the parking lot.

LOVE the single wiper mod! Pete did it right...even deleted the nozzles!
A couple weeks back he went to town on the dents in the cowl, when it didn't pop out like he wanted...looks like he turned that opportunity into a possitive! Awesome skillz bro!

Thanks for the garage shots... now get your car out on the open road and you won't feel that way!

all good, apart from flash beam is very weak during the day, here we use it to get fast lane hogs to get out of the way, and my flash beam indicator (blue) on the rev counter is on all the time when the lights are on fully.. i know something is not right , maybe wires were crossed somewhere.. i suck at electrics but i know there was very limited room for mess-ups... feedback eagerly wanted, solutions too.
