Corrected my order. Helpfully, Nicol clarified that I was wrong and told me what I actually preferred and wanted. He's so helpful like that...almost enough to be reclassified from "Acquaintance" to "Friend" status.

You knowz it. You owe me a wristy. No eye contact. Lots of lube #standard

Are there any plans for the rear lights as well? I had a look around the car. It's a silver na and I always thought the silver detail in the headlight looked good and so does carbon fibre.

Would you consider the silver details and leave the rest carbon fibre as an option?

It would be less of a difference with the oem rear lights and would still show CF...

(I know black with silver detail would be even less difference, ...but I kinda like the high tech looks of carbon fibre)

if there's enough demand I can look into the rears. There seems to be more demand for rears than there used to be.

Hi Tom. I tried to get some new rears but they are out of stock. I think there will be more demand. Put me on the interested list ;-)

4700k D1S xenon. I'll compare options and pick most sensible price verses performance, however I suspect some people will want to fit different temperature bulbs so won't overdo it on cost if they'll just be replaced.
