NBP with new tint/HID's.

Whats up everyone, I'm pretty new to these forums. My R18 is about.. five or so weeks old now, and I've already got mod fever like crazy. The only major exterior mods I've done so far has been 15% tint all around except on the windshield, with 5% strip on the windshield at the top. Also, I installed my 4300K HID kit about two weeks ago and I've been loving every minute of it.

So here are some before and pictures for your viewing pleasure:

Stock Pictures













4300K HIDs get installed

Before:



After:





This makes it look a little blue, when its actually really really white:



Side shot, beams are actually much brighter but the picture looks cool.




Here comes the tint:

15% on sides/rear window, 5% strip on the windshield. No problems looking out of it at night, still able to look through it during the day. The 5% strip is really dark.







HIDs on + Tint:












That's it for now, till whatever my next mod is. Feedback is greatly appreciated, as well as any suggestions. Sorry for the shitty camera quality, some of the pictures were taken during a light drizzle outside, and the rest was just me not knowing how to operate my camera at all.

Haha.. those were just some old gym shorts I had on so I wouldn't dirty up any decent clothes while installing the HIDs. But thanks. :)

What part of LA you in?

I am just above the stateline in AR, and have the same car except 5% on the windows, 8k hids, and skunk2 drop. Still on stock wheels.

I'm over here in Baton Rouge, so.. like.. 7 hours away from you. Any pictures of your drop? I've been thinking about it but I'm not really sure how it would look with my car.

And I wish I could get rid of these stock wheels, I'm not a huge fan of the covers.
