Yours is quite nice as well. Did you buy your headlights with projectors installed or did you mod them yourself?

The baking part is easy, just make sure you wear gloves and wrap the light with a damp towel. It is cool enough to touch with you hands, but as long as it takes to pull the lens off, it gets real warm real quick

If you are experience a pulsating vibration during slight prolonged turns along with the knocking its def a wheel hub baring assembly. Easy fix you can do yourself, you can find cheaper then dealer assemblies at BapGeon or ebay.

BTW if this is the issue, which ever way you turn that activates the symptoms its usual the opposite baring...i.e. slight turns left at 60mph(symptoms induce), right baring.

The lugs come loose with a bad bearing because it wobbles. Dont check it by turning the car at speeds that may cause more damage. Simplest way is to jack the car up. Wiggle the wheel in and out. There should not be any play in it at all.
