Default Mini Morimoto D2S Retro

This is my second retro attempt and I think I'm doing good so far.
I used FX-Rs on my first retro but one of the projectors was off rotation and I wasn't able to fix it because my car is my daily driver so I decided to build another set.

I bought everything at The Retrofit Source online: headlight upgrades for all applications

Here's what I'll be using.


Cobalt headlight taken apart.





I had to do some trimming but nothing serious, I also sanded the reflector.




Painted shroud and mounted projector.






I'm going to aim the projectors tomorrow, and I'll be updating soon.
