Is that Sam's white 300 with the projectors?

Yup, that's Sam's. We installed the Halos in today but I guess it's up to him to post pics.
Heres a shot of the process. :P

More info on those projectors??

the projectors are actually going in my car. they were on sam's car because his were in the oven haha. but in the process of opening the projector headlights one of the halos got broken because the projector bezel was already loose (AAC's fault for not glueing it properly so it was rubbing against the headlight lense) and hit the halo. so i'll be fixing everything up shortly.
anyway heres a pic of sam's car now fitted with black headlights and asian halos.

Yeh from yesterdays experience AAC halos are a lot more fragile.
also IS300 headlights are a lot easier to open up due to using screws to hold the lense on instead of just clips like hte IS200 headlights

I want to know more about this projector setup please...
Hook a brother up!

the projector setup is difficult you have to cut the relector and then glue the projector in.

Doesn't AAC have the projector retrofitted IS300 lamps? Read that the Lexus RX projectors fit well and the Honda Euro projectors were good too.

yeh that headlight is a retrofitted AAC item. but when i opened it up I could tell how it was put together. it was pretty much just cut paint and glue. Tricky part is getting the projector to aim properly. Hella/accord euro or any projector can be bought cheap on ebay for around 150 for a pair. Well IMO AAC could have used better projectors as these were 2 piece items. the projector itself and a bezel on top. the bezel basically fell right off. its only glued on.
heres another pic of sam's cars new headlights (sang on thie forum).
