It's a fair amount of money, but as has been said, if it makes you smile and you can afford it, what the heck. There are also lots worse things you could have spent it on.

I like the idea of something non-gaudy that sets your G off from others all day long. Within two months after I got my G, two more Graphite Shadow 2011 sedans showed up at my country club....

I've had mine since the first week of January. $500 installed due to negotiations at sale. Love them. They had a set in stock (mine are the 3 in a row) that someone ordered and never picked up. Took about 4 hours while I waited and went out in the loaner to see how it did in the snow lol.

They actually are projector Led bulbs that look to be between 5k and 6k. On the pictures they look yellowish though but in person they're white with a bluish/purplish Hue to them. I'm not a fan of the yellow look either. The pictures dont really do them justice. Its hard to take pics of lights, especially bright projector lights.

Yeah you must have the sport bumper. I was going to swap bumpers but I decided against it. I didn't know these were available at time of purchase or I would have negotiated them into the deal as well.

They are hyper white. I'm not sure why they look yellow in the pics. When viewing the pics on my laptop or my phone they look whitish but when I was at work last night they looked yellowish on that screen. Maybe its because both my phone and laptop has a Led screen. I'll try to get some better pics with my camera.

He said 5K or 6K! Most likely 6K because he has a tint of blue!! 5K is Pure White!! If it's 6K then I approve!!!!

Here are some more cell phone pics. You can see the blue hue around the lights better and how intensely bright they are.

Looks really good, hope to get some installed as well...had a question though, do they turn off when you turn the main headlights on? Is there a way to keep them on all the time?
