Car looks good Ron!

Yea, non-projector housings + HIDs + purple looking light = bad, and most definitely illegal.

A good HID swap would be nice, get some projectors to fab into the housings and a good HID bulb (something in the 4000k range is best, 6000k is ok, anything higher just looks blue / purple and has less usable light output) and you'll be in business.

oh upon further look that blue plate thing is a thin blue line license plate. the blue represents law enforcement and the black signifies good and evil, and how law enforcement stands between both. if you are going to scrap it ill take it off your hands

Yea, same here. Both my cars were from Pennsylvania. The Camaro I had to wait for the title(Jan 08), but with the truck I had the title as soon as I left DMV(Feb 09)

yeah for it to be purple, its probably like 16,000k-20,000k definitely illegal

4300k is closest to pure white and has the best light output. hidplanet.com is a great source for info as is ls1tech


good luck not modding the hell out of it though
