i kind of like that idea of using the spot for the fog lights as air intakes, it would definitely get a lot of air to engine.

They're done! I love them, The car feels so modern now! With plug and play HID bulbs the spread on the ground is all janky... the projectors are the exact opposite. There's a perfect spread on the ground, pictures don't do it justice.
Pictures probably to come tomorrow. I've been doing homework and these lights all week, I need a beer! ;D

Thanks for all the comments, guys! Yeah'll be doing a how-to, don't worry!
And the point of the cutoff shield is so that it doesn't reflect up into people's eyes at all. These are 100% legal, no brighting for me!

Yes, people don't seem to realize you are using 100% factory lighting from another car brand. So as long as they are aimed properly you won't have any issues with people flashing you.

Hit the nail on the head! That's exactly what it is. These projectors are a house brand so they're not technically off of a car (these are shallower and the mounting is a lot thinner than typical projectors, even though they look the same) but they're modeled after the Acura TSX and Lexus LS460 projectors according to the company that makes them. I talked to him a bit on the phone after I bought them. He said group buys are a possibility... Would anyone be interested?

group buys ended up costing me more last time I did it due to shipping
