It take a day to finish a set. There is also lot of peeps to call if you need it. $900.00 or $175.00 DIY.

What ever you do, the simplest mods always look the best and are timeless. Good luck.

I'm on the fence about doing them myself. I did them on my last car, and had pretty good results. I had some condensation in one light, but it was an easy fix. If anything I learned some good lessons the first go around.

Those are some great looking lights pfdaxe. How reliable have your LEDs been? Any issues?

Thanks. I've had them for about 5 or 6 months with no issues. But, I only drive the Z once or twice a week.

Jon Wilson formerly of AAM Competition took the photos for me and I'm not sure what setup he used. I personally asked him to take photos of my Z for me though as his techniques always result in fantastic photos.

Great Thread! I have been thinking about doing something with my headlights. This has definitely given me some inspiration.
