HID retrofit on P11 complete

I've been working on retrofitting some bixenon projectors into my headlights since my car is put away for the winter. Not sure if many of you know this, but it's actually a very tedious task and takes a lot of time and trial/error. There is actually a huge website/forum devoted to just this (http://www.hidplanet.com/forums/index.php). Since they don't make aftermarket headlights for my car (and if they did, most aftermarket projectors suck, that's why people go with oem), I made some. Took me about 4 months (on and off), but I got them just how I want them. The setup consists of Audi RS6 bixenon projectors (that have been modified), d2s bulbs, ballasts from a maxima, a custom xenon harness that I made, and a bunch of other custom stuff that I had to fab up. I did a step-by-step write up here --> http://www.g20.net/forum/showthread.php?t=56560 , so check it out.

Anyway, here are the final pics. I'll be able to light up like 8 lanes of highway (too bad in vt we don't have 8 lane highways). I'll get night shots up when I get some time.

Looks amazing. How much did they end up costing your in the end if you don't mind me asking. I would love to do that to my Tsuru's one day.

(I also bought a second set of headlights from a member here, but I will sell the other set once I'm done, so I'm not factoring in the price of the 2nd set of headlights)
