Love the clean Red. Please excuse my ignorance but what is an EL dial?
did you install the HIDs yourself?

[dc292177917]

EL Dial is sth like....THIS LOL
yes i did that myself with my little asian hand,
not being offensive but i promise big hands can't do the job unless they take the bumper and lights off (specially the passenger side)
btw they are normal bulbs only, not xenon and anyway i don't think there're any room to place the ballart...

[vtecing]

very cool, i want one of these for my next car

mine is 5000k bulbs
if u want more bluish effect 6000k is suggested
anyway if i m not on tight budget, i'll go for philip's diamond vision,
they're far better in every aspect and quality is guaranteed (Y)

Apparently EM1 lip fits the Del-sol OEM bar quite well.

My friend had one his Del-sol.

This might help you if you're taking a look at lips.


Welcome btw.
