My new oracle halo kit

just finished installing my new oracle halo kit, whole process took about 2 weeks and was well worth it, very happy with the lights. since i got them i've had people turn heads. planning on upgrading the standard lights to 10000k deep blue to offset the halos.

Prices:
New Headlight Assembly - $450
Paint Housings Black - $15
Oracle Blue Halo Kit - $199
AACStyle.com Professional Installation - $199 + $49 shipping
LED Turn Signals - $25
Blue Parking Lights - $15

Total: $952

here are the pictures feel free to comment or if you have any questions.

**some pictures i couldnt upload because of the file size, you can see them all at my cardomain;

well it was mainly because i had to buy a new headlight assembly because my old lights were scratched up and foggy as you can see from my first picture. If you want a good looking car you have to do it right and you can't cut corners just because you wanna be cheap so I had to put a little extra money on it to get brand new clear headlights

That looks nice. I'm anxious about putting lights in the head lights because of failures. LEDs especially after my time with LEDs from other companies.. **** im hungry. that damn hotdog and orange fanta is getting to me.

It looks really nice. Can the Halos stay on when the lights are off?

I need to still go to a shop and have them rewire it so when I turn my parking lights on they will turn on at the same time

you paid for 'professional' install and they didnt set the wiring up how you wanted? i'd talk to them and get them to do it how you want at their expense...

they pre-wired it so the lights will turn on because i had to send my headlights to another state...but i have to wire the halos into the parking lights myself if i went them to light up that way. it wont cost too much ill do it when i have time

sweet, all you need now is some lambo doors, a porsche active spoiler, and a pontiac ram air hood and you've got yourself a sweet ride.

Agreed....to each his own, but I've never been a fan of halos on anything other than BMWs (as that's where they originated). If I was spending that much on headlights, I (personally) would have just bought new OEM units, or upgraded to OEM H.I.D. units if it was a halogen car before....but that's just me. Although those Spirit R headlight assemblies look pretty wicked....
