My Sup gets new HID Headlights :)

I retrofitted Lexus D2S Xenon Bulbs and Custom Painted the Housings to match the car (Ferrari Red).

I think it gives a good effect for the car.

What do you guys think?

before:



after:



I will get some shots with the HIDs on tonight!

the cut-off lines on the OEM Supra projectors are not so great, I am looking to retrofit a set of 90mm hella bi-xenons into the lights and working to develop some demon eyes too!

Personally, I dig:

1) Cars that are go, not show.
2) Stock Head/Tail lights on the MkIv.
3) Stock Dashes.

Sorry, I just don't dig some color matched stuff.

Oh, and get the chick off your car :-) If I want photos of her, I'd ask for some. But I came here to check out a gorgeous Toyota creation... Besides that, those booty shorts can scratch paint.

That's why I prefaced the other two with my comment about not being a big looks guy. Gimme turbo's, and EBC's, and such... I'm all about function.
