My Black Projector Headlights.. *PICS*

**SLAMMED_C** · 08-24-2008, 09:30 PM

Okay gents.. Ive finally installed my Black Housing Projector Headlights.. Ive had these things in my room for probably a year!! finally got off my ass and put them in!
Decided at the same time I should do HID since my oem headlights had a mercedes xenon ballast/bulb set in them. I must say I do like the Xenon/HID look. so I did an HID kit as well.. went with 8000K H1 Low beam bulbs.. looks sweet!
I need to adjust them though.. aimed too low!!.. found that out when I was driving tonight!
anyways.. enjoy the pics:

And I also had a chance to test fit my BRABUS bumper with EOM pre updated bumper support holding it all in place!
took a quick snap of it:

**JDoggery** · 08-25-2008, 07:13 PM

**Fizzle** · 08-26-2008, 07:46 AM

That bumper looks really good. I wonder what one of our cars would look like completely in that flat primer white.

beautiful car man, hats off. where did you buy the black housing projector headlights ?

**SLAMMED_C** · 08-26-2008, 01:08 PM

thanks for all the positive feedback guys.. my car is finally coming together after so long! just been in pieces and things half finished for years.

I got the headlights from ebay actually.

**Lordkoo** · 08-26-2008, 07:00 PM

Great job! Do you plan to upgrade the rear tail lights with the LEDs one from Ebay?

2 years ago i had purchased a set of LED tails for my car off german ebay.. but the lights got returned back to the sender in germany with damage.. so they had to refund my money and I have not seen any I like since.
if I do find a set i like i will for sure get them.

Me either! hopefully it wont take me too long to get it all sorted out.

**soldier** · 08-27-2008, 01:43 PM

wow, you and i should meet, because we have the exact same exterior. mine's a 00 23k

i've had those on since 06 though, and no HID kit since there is a sticker on the inside of those housings that says "do not use hids"

that's the second time this month, first dokotela comes out with his black beauty, now this. all this time i thought i was the only one with those lights

Ive definitely seen your car then (when you lived at bayview/steeles)
how come youre getting it repainted? just want fresh paint? rust?
I got my car repainted (except for roof) cause of a bunch of rust, and an unwanted meeting with a concrete median in the winter! didnt turn out as nice as i liked, but its good. Im going to be repainting my car again the future.. flat black. so as long as it looks pretty good now im happy.
yeh we should meet up sometime for a cruise.. get some other w202's to join as well!

im getting it repainted because coincidentally i also ran into a certain immobile object ie. a traffic light pole last winter. plus there was some rust so it was a good opportunity to get it all done

the night of disaster

a few days later

the emblem and grille have since changed to flat and blackout respectively

flat black would look crazy

which area are you in? i've never seen your car before

**Tetro87** · 08-28-2008, 09:20 AM

Nice projectors man in fact they are the same ones i got or had. . .

. Im thinking bout puttin another pair in but the first pair didnt sit as well as yours do but on the other hand I wasnt the one who put them in. How did you get yours to sit so well? Also how hard was the HID install? Thanks

**griplimited** · 08-28-2008, 10:59 AM

Looks good. Where did you source the bumper and how much if you dont mind me asking?

Mine dont sit that perfect either.. there the corner lights are. they dont line up perfect with the fender edge.. but what can I do.. they still look awesome!

thanks! its a replica bumper.. I got it from Fellow member 714guy. I believe he has none left though.
dont remember what it was.. there is a thread in here somewhere about them!

**expo5.0** · 08-30-2008, 04:22 AM

so those lights aren't fitting very well on the outside corners right?

no they dont fit well on the outside corners like the OEM corners do.. its not that bad, but they still arent perfect.

**Pagz** · 08-31-2008, 07:10 PM

**Captain - X** · 09-09-2008, 12:34 AM

Looks nice, I almost got a set of those myself, but I heard that they were a pain in the ass to align and that the Swedish athority didnÂ´t aprove with them :-(

I got these instead, unfortnatly I lost the matching cornors on the road.
