So parked her up nicely on the side and notice my headlight was all smashed up  :laugh: wether someone has done it or it happend on my way home that last night of driving, i dont no  :undecided: didnt hear anything driving home.. but tbh, i dont think you would notice anything at 140mph and the enginee screeeming at me blitzing down the M4 :evil: lmao, even a wasp could of done it at tht speed i rek?

so yea anyway insted of spending 40notes on a new one, i am going to buy a nice new set that iv seen  :grin:

Just to prewarn you your about to get alot of stick for posting up how fast you where going! And the tin of worms that is HIDS  :laugh:

Do a search and you will find loadsss of discussions on them.

In short. If your going to have HIDS make sure they are in Projector headlights! Not very hard to fit yourself. But yeah you do need to take your bumper off. Check out the classifieds people are always selling them.
