Black Grilles and 6000k D1S Installed...

Big thanks to Teddy at SSDD-Motorsport and Mark from EvoT for helping me.

Got my chrome grilles swapped out for new black ones and new 6k xenon bulbs to replace the 4.3k stock bulbs

Both very simple mods yet very effective.

The grilles pretty much just popped out with just a little leverage out of the clips from behind the grilles. The new ones just slotted straight on! They clipped back on themselves.

Bulbs were trickier. The wheels need to come off for access to the bulbs plus passenger side has air intake in the way which makes it harder. Teddy did a great job and is patient and methodic, unlike me!

Bulbs are as bright as stock, but a much better colour match to the GP Thunders and have a bluey haze compared to the yellow colour of the stock bulbs. Really pleased with them!
