small brake upgrade and HID bixenons installed

Basically anything I do to my RL is a perfomance upgrade, these are the 2 most important IMO being able to see at night and braking

I picked up a bi-xenon hi/lo HID kit from www.xenithxenons.com for 165 after a friend of mine picked up a kit a year ago and even though he ghetto rigged it up it worked just fine until a ballast went out and was replaced for free last week. Anyway this is the view semi adjusted - I wont know until I take a trip to a special road which prompted me to think about a headlight performance upgrade.



Also about 6 months ago I boiled my brake fluid and though I've been putting off bleeding them until I got new upgraded rotors I decided to do it now and upgrade the fluid and lines. The line are braided stainless steel and G&J aircraft fabbed them about for 80.00 for all 4. The fluid is off the shelf synthetic you can get at any autozone for 7 bux but it's boiling point is rated over dot 4. The lines were dont more for braking consistency rather than shortening stopping distances though they do a small amount.
