the mini gatlings look good in the p5 lights, i just think they're too small in the sedan

I took a few pics as well of shrouds I had around the house (I need to add the GTI-R's to this)

All the following use the Mini H1, just different shrouds

with all being left chrome, it doesn't flow

With a black reflector it becomes the focus instead of an eyesore
 
i really like the satin finish. i was either going to do satin or a low gloss on mine. Ended up trying the gloss.

In the next couple weeks I should finalize my setup:

OEM Canadian blacked out bezels and lenses (practically brand new from the MP5T)
Mini H1's with 4.0 shields (no foreground limiter)
Mini Gatling shrouds painted satin black or black chrome
XB35 bulbs
Maaaayyyybbbbeeeee Amber XB LED's if they fit behind the Mini Gatlings (on their own switch or with parking lights)
 


I know it's in my miata but it's the same projectors
