Default Projectors? I think so.

Ok well as promised maybe not on this site but I was planning on giving some of my plans on the future of my clear black headlights. Plan being that I would make quad projectors. The lows would be either FX or TL bi xexons and the hi's would be probably diffinately being FX projectors and maybe doing E55 projectors because they're cheaper and I probably wouldn't be using them and they would be more of a appearance mod. As for the shrouds I would be using something simple and something clean. I do however like the look of the Gatling Gun shrouds that allow a small amout of light out of the slots around the projectors. Plan on as well for full LED turn signals except for the side markers as there is no need for them to be LED.

But here are a couple pics that I "borrowed" which are not mine. But this is the direction that I plan on going with my set up looks wise.




This project will take sometime. But I hope that this wont take to long for me to actually make. There are a few things that I am still holding back because I am not certian if I am going to go through with it.

Sweet, I was thinking about this a while ago but i couldnt get past the whole bi-xenon thing. I think it would just look funny with one. This set up sounds much better. Goodluck

Here is a quick peak to the project. I am further along than this but I keep changing my mind on the set up. I will however throw up some more teasers very soon. Just wanted to get some pics up so you all knew I was still working on it and not pulling legs.
ENJOY!!!






To answer the question will I make these for people. Honestly I can say I am not interested in doing so. A lot of time goes alone into cutting the headlight open. But when I have a finished product and total amount of hours logged into making them I can give a diffinative answer on that issue.

Looks like a fun and very cool project, sometimes it takes longer to do the original set, and work out all the kinks, making doing future ones easier to do...Either way keep us updated with pics and such as you continue the project, can't wait to see it completed.

If you can perfect your technique and make it very solid and functional, then you will have a huge customer base on the site. Myself included.
