Default Angel Eyes Headlights w/ HID's Finally Installed **Pics**

Ok, finished the installation of the headlights and hid's about an hour ago or so with my cousin, i'm still waiting for it to get darker or even a nicer day. I had a tint shop do the eyelids, the guy said he painted 4-5 coats of Niteshades and then tried to match the paint as best he could to the truck. I took a few pics real quick but there are more to come.









Let me know what you guys think so far

Thanks

They are 8000K, i'll get some closer pics tomorrow, i just took two more in the dark but i should have taken the flash off the camera..still doesn't do it justice anyway. I'll definitely get some bigger pics when the sun begins to go down tomorrow and throw them up on here. Jay thanks for your help, if I didn't ask you about this it would have never happend, thanks a lot man.







edit: i enlarged the pics in the original post, more will be up tomorrow

you got a pic of the light beam? I'm concerned about putting HIDs in lights without a projector housing. Does the eyelid create enough of a light barrier to not blind other drivers?

I'll make sure I take a pic of that and post it, the eyelid doesn't let any light through, the guy who did this for me said he put 4-5 coats of Niteshades on and then painted over it with the blue once it dried. I was driving behind my friend on the turnpike around 9:30 tonight and I asked him later if it was blinding him through the rearview or either side views and he said he didn't have a problem with it. But that was the second reason why I had the eyelid done so it wouldn't blind drivers but also because it looks BA lol.

haha when the guy was doing the niteshades and paint on the eyelids he told me he was wondering in his head how sick this was gonna look once they were on.
