Ok, too dark at the moment to take some descent pictures since I have to set up timer on camera and I had to do this in local garage and people were waiting for pump Washed car today, but I think I missed a few spots BJUnion 5200K + parkers i12.photobucket.com/albums/a231/ausfit/smileys/thumbsup.gif[/IMG] Can I just add how much of a pregnant dog it is to fit these lights in, I kinda scratch the bulb but still working fine and I DIDN'T touch the glass with bear hand. Who came up with going through fender to get to lightbulbs? pfft! Yes I know, need to drop 30mm, plus those alloys need repairing. I nicked 'em off my bro in law's old car. Might respray and repair or get new ones ;D

Its strange to see a car without windows tinting. It so hot in Australia that pretty much every car is tinted which means you can't really see into them particularly at night.
At least with the way the headlight are noone is going to be stealing them in a hurry. The engine bay is so tight that I suppose behind the fender was the only way they could work out how to get to them. Lights look really good.
Just needs an ausfit sticker to finish it off.

I am planning on window tinting back, but still need to find out what the laws are in UK. Very strange laws, I was thinking full black on back, but some friends say no it's illegal. Don't know if I tint the little windows fully black will be illegal.
My window visors are like see-through-ish, might pull them off and respray them black ;D Any tips of spray painting?

nice work what kind of wheels are they?
how black u want to spray ur visors? until the clear are opaque ? the visors are there to reduce the light comming through the window such that the suns light doesn't blind u while driving. however, if u intend to spray it, try taping masking tape over the clear bits to similate the effect of it being sprayed. as u'll find, it will also reduce ur field of vision (something i've noticed with my visors which arn't clear at the front like yours)
although it may not look cool with the clearish front of the visors (as they may appear to be faded by the sun to the average bystander), its purpose is to limit your already reduced vision provided by the chunky A pillar.
my 2 cents ;D

they're some ol' BKRacing ones....can't seem to find the model number of them anymore. I was thinking of spraying opaque black, but I'll try out that method of using masking tape and see what the effect is like.

Heehee loving these lamps!
Spec of UK Jazz comes in 2 flavours -> 1.4 or 1.2.
Mine is the 1.2 L12A i-DSI. FL model.
Thing is, it's face lift model with FL bumpers and airbox filter, but rear lights are not pink tinted, the headlamps aren't all chrome silver and my headunit is the one with the 2 knobs. lol.
