I'm finally gonna install HID tonight!! Since my car is still very new and I never take it apart before, I thought it's better to let a professional do the installation. I'm going with either 8000K or 6000K, I'll see. I'll post pictures once I have them installed

Dude, may as well start learning your car now lol If you are on this site for ver long you will get the mod bug and you wont want to pay for expensive installations. Installing H.I.D.s isnt very hard at all.... http://www.nicoclub.com/articles.php?id=294364 this is the easiest way IMO. I have 6000k and love them, diamond white with a hint of blue http://www.ddmtuning.com

You do not own a flat head and a phillips screw driver because thats just about all you need to install the HIDs for taking off the bumper. The car does not even need to be jacked up either.

Regardless, are you having them install it with a relay harness?

haha yes, you are right... I do not own those .... I know, I know, I can get it from the tool shop near-by but I guess it's psychology, I do not trust myself yet, I'm afraid I might break the bumper or something lol. Anyways, I know I should DIY, like pros on this forum does, I promise I will soon!

Yea they have the relay harness, I doubled check that and everything else. Plus I'm gonna stand beside that guy and watch him do the installation.
