Yeah some 25ft away from wall shots would be nice! Looks great so far though. I took some detailed pics on how to remove the bumper and take out the headlights this weekend. Man I have done it so many times that I can get it all done in about 20 minutes. I will post them up with my DIY very soon!

I'll try to give some measurements (Distance) What distance do you guys prefer.

I'll post results with some pics. I have to find a flat area because my garage is a sloped elivation.

the picture you see is approx. 10-12 ft away.

25ft against a white wall would be money if you can do it. Also, while you have your car at that distance could you get up close to the wall and take a pic of the cutoff?

make sure you have the headlight sit for couple seconds before takin the picture. I think some of them are kinda blue-ish.

They're a little bluish because he has 6000K bulbs installed, rather than the stock 4300K.

How come those projectors don't have that nice blue coloration I see on TL and BMW projectors? Is it because their type of projector or because of the bulb?

Color at the cutoff is actually considered a design flaw by most automotive lighting manufacturers. You can color modify any projector by extending the distance between the lens and reflector bowl.
