The entire projector was replaced, there is a difference between hid projectors and halogen projectors. Good to Know!
Not too sure I want to do another mazda 3 set of headlights. they don't fit in my oven and I need to use my heatgun to heat them up. TAKES FOREVER!
I'll have to check to see if they fit in my other oven....

Pricing is dependent on what someone wants done.
To give you an idea, my h11 bulbs with 35watt slim ballasts shipped to the states run 100bucks, and an h11 relay harness harness included. This is just for the plug and play set up that most run.
Thanx. I sure wouldn't want to cut you off with your hellas!
What would happen if you left the stock projectors on?

I've decided I want to make the hella horns more subdude so I bought some OEM paint and i'll be painting the grills to match the car's body color instead of the bright red that it is now.
BTW no more out of focus photos, bought a new digital camera.

That EVIL M looks F'n Sweet! Good idea painting the Hellas. The Quality of these photos are phenomenal!
Keep up the good work.

Well... you know how I feel about those wheels. They do seem to bering out how much wheel gap is there though?

The blues seem awfully pushed in these photos. You might want to reset the white balance in your camera.

the camera wasn't on auto. I was taking some indoor photos so the setting was set for indoor floresent lighting hence the f-ed up photos. Just forgot to change it back. I'll have some better photos soon. Yea, I need some coils now... but I got to finish up the stereo/sub install first... so my spare cash is going twards that first before coils.
Funny part over 50miles have been put on the car and the TPMS light still hasn't come on yet LOL STUPID CAR!

Ah. Gotcha'. Been there, done that too.
Personally, I'm glad my car doesn't have TPMS. I am not looking forward to the day I replace Virgin1 with a newer car... well, yes and no, y'know?

I also color matched the grills on my hella horns but I didn't take any photos of it yet.
