Repainted mine and changed it to Indigo Blue, a Jaguar colour. Kept the OEM wheels & painted them Jag Liquid silver. Pics in my old locker if you're interested.

Did you retrofit it with new projectors, or still using the 9006 plug and play bulbs?

Though I used to preach that the plug and plays were wrong, now that I've tried them, i'm very impressed with how the SVX projector handles the light. The cutoff is nice, with a minimal amount of glare.

So, to answer your question, these are plug and play 9006's. I still have my old modified housings with the 7 series projectors, but I just love how nice the lenses on these ones look.

That is quite a sexy au-to-mo-bile.

Can't wait til it warms up around here so I can pull mine out and polish it up, dings and all.
