A bit expensive, but they seem very reliable and other people I know recommend them and have used them for years.

As to HID's, if you are putting them in off the internet, they can be tricky but not impossible (just search and you'll find some step by step instructions) I will say this much, I've got them on mine but never ever want to drive in a snow storm, they will blind you like nothing else. If looking for something along the lines of a factory upgrade, I've not a clue.

As to detailing, I normally wash and wax it myself, though I've been very remiss lately. If you find someone reasonable and good quality, post a message about it, I'd be interested...but as many pits and chips as I've got, I may just go to a paint shop I know and have them take care of the blemishes and buy a damn bra no matter what some may think.
Thanks so much Erzer!
I actually found a detailer in the area who has EXCELLENT reviews and they actually can come to you to do the detailing. So I will be giving them a go towards the end of the week and I will certainly report back.

In regards to the HID's yes, I was going to get them offline but I didn't plan on installing them myself. I planned on having a shop of some sort install them as I have no clue what I am doing. I just bought these new Sylvania ZXE's which are Sylvania's offering to the HID world. They say they are around 4200k ----- I put them in myself so they could certainly be a little off but they are CERTAINLY much brighter than my previous lights. My previous lights were so bad, it was no point to have them on unless it was PITCH black out.


Nevertheless, thanks so much and I certainly won't hesitate continue to update here and what not. As I find out new things or have questions...I will certainly be posting! :-)
