Coated bulbs burn hotter - that's why they don't last as long.

It's God's way of telling you to quit your ricer ways.

Take it easy. I never talk trash about anyone based upon ethnicity or whatever.

jamal - I have an extra pair of those reflectors that are leftover from my retrofit. I'll mail them to you if you can PayPal me $5 to cover postage/packing materials/time.

PM me.

Whats the wattage of your new bulbs? Be careful, since most of those ship bulbs are 100+ watts when the OEM bulbs are 55 -60 watts.

That happened because our lights are not designed to cope with so high temperatures and the bulbs you chose produce high temperatures.

In my opinion you should get a proper HID kit.

You would need to take the headlights out to get at those shields, but they come out with a screwdriver. Let me know if want them.
