The passenger side looks better, but not by much. Will definitely buy those bolts.

This looks like a small headache. Driver's side subframe bracket bolt was ground down by the road back when the suspension collapsed a couple years ago.

I nicked the red paint with the spring compressor. I'm sad about that.

Old front Springs vs New front Springs. I didn't take a picture of the comparison of the rears.

I got creative and used some Vinyl Polysiloxane putty (the stuff your dentist uses to take an impression of a crown or bridge preparation) to create an outline of back of the Morimoto Mini HB projector.

I then overlayed the putty on the reflectors and used a thin Sharpie marker to trace the inside of it on the reflector. It doesn't have to come out perfect. After that was done, I used a Dremel to cut out these areas of the reflector, as you can see, it's not perfect, and it doesn't have to be.

As I said before, it's not a perfect cut, but it does the job. The holes you drill are what needs to be perfect. As a bonus, the heat sink now has more room to breathe.

The projector now sits nearly flush with the reflector.

The hardest part was making sure that I was going to drill the holes in the correct area and keeping the projector centered on the reflector. An extra pair of hands are needed. The holes you drill on the reflector will be the same ones that the projector uses to secure the shroud. Then, fasten the screws through the reflector, the projector, and the shroud. It should look like in this picture.

As compared with the previous design, this allows the projector to sit about a ½ to ¾ inch further back than by using the center hole and the locking ring on the screw.

A bit of hard driving, with revs reaching up to 5k rpm then stopped at a traffic light. Temperature hit about 222°F. When the car began moving again the temperature soon dropped to 215°F.
