Mr. Zipps. reliable?

Hi,

I'm thinking of getting my 06 headlights done by Mr. Zipps. He said he can do a 6 LED mod in the clearance strip.
Anyone know about him and is he reliable and does he do good work?

Yes, a couple of my friends had work done by him in their G's. Anyway, he lives in the town next to me. He does excellent work but, I think he is rather too expensive for my taste. But, that's my opinion. Anyway, hope that helped!

Hey, if your getting work done with Mr. Zipps. I asked him about a group discount if we get about 5 heads to get the lights done we can get a 10% discount. Not much but whatever. Pm me if your down. I heard good things about him.

Putting LEDs into 06 headlights in the raised area where the clearance strip used to be in 03-05 headlamps will be very difficult. The chrome bezel is very delicate and to do this cleanly he would have to be very precise. I am not saying it can't be done it just will be a very difficult process.

Dan from Mr.Zipps said he can do it for $350. Haven't seen pics on his website doing this type of work on the 06 housing. So, I can't really vouch for this type of work. If anyone has it done on the 06. Please post pics. Thank you in advance.

I'm still thinking about doing this but I can't bring myself to justify spending $350 on a headlight mod....But, I want it.
