wow...looks great.

Yes, more pics please.

I also have my Projectors in a box as I debate on the color of the reflectors on my black S.

This may help me decide.

In all the installs I don't recall reading much about alignment of the projectors so you get a good light pattern that does not blind oncomming traffic.
How is that done?

In your owner's manual, there are good directions for alignment. Follow those instructions as the headlight housing is the same, and so is the alignment process. When you initially put the projectors into the housing, and before you seal it back up, you need to horizontally align the light pattern. Once you are satisfied with a good horizontal line, then you can close them up and finish the install. Once complete, find a nice wall to shine your lights at and follow the instructions in the manual.

I do remember seeing a few posts about the alignment on here, too.
