The parts were purchased from The Retrofit Source:
Apollo Shrouds (also known as Cayenne shrouds)
FX-R Projectors
5000k bulbs
AMP to D2S bulb adapters (so I could reuse my plug-n-play wiring and ballasts)


ALL OF THIS WORK (minus install) WAS DONE BY RICH AT HID ILLUSIONZ. The work was done in 2 days and the shipping is as fast as you want to pay for.

They were EXCELLENT to work with from start to finish; this was over a month in the making for me. They offered to sell me all necessary parts for the project and do the work, but also said I was free to shop around for better prices and send them the parts if I did find better prices. They sent in-progress pictures of all the work, and even did changes to my liking on the side marker tinting when I wanted it darker than originally done. They always respond quickly, and even called me on the phone when I sent an email with my phone number because of a troubleshooting problem I had during installation.

Please check out their website if you are at all considering getting work like this done. Many processes are done complimentary if having a retrofit done (color-mod for the lens, reflector painting, side marker tinting, etc....). They also offer group discounts for the forum if at least 5 people do it at once.


Unrelated: I also custom tinted my tail lights and will be tinting the orange reflectors on the backs of my mirrors. Please stay tuned for that thread; it will show the final products of the head lights, mirrors, and tail lights.
