Headlight Upgrades | SoCal

I REALLY don't know if this is a repost but so sorry in advance if this is but I couldn't find it in the search.

Does anyone know where in the Los Angeles area I can find a body shop that can upgrade the look of headlights? I'm looking to get new angel eyes installed, black out the interior, and cover the hideous orange corner reflectors and I'm pretty confident I can't do all this myself without damaging something lol well if you guys have any information it would be much appreciated!

.........650...A whole new set of headlights cost that much!

You bought a BMW not a HONDA. Nothing is cheap on these car's.

I had my headlights done by BavX. Their work is great and they got it done for me in a day. Had it done about 2 years ago and they are still in great condition with no condensation problems.

I have OSS, similar to LS3 but in Miami, and they charged me $750. I would expect a range of $500-700 wherever you go, more with blackout. I would reccomend BavX LS3 as others mentioned because you are local to them, and I believe blackout is included in their price
