It actually really wasnt that hard - we didnt have to cut the back of the reflector at all to get the projector in. Im thinking about posting a mini-writeup later to show you guys - thanks for the compliments.

Its ok, naples is the Org's latest post-whoring .............
he'll fade out or eventually get banned... they always do

yes, (humbly stated) they do look better in person - especially at nite. since i didnt cover the sides of the projectors some of the light escapes and hits the reflectors of the headlight causing a reverse angel eye effect with the bezels. its just that the camera cant pick that up very well.

nice job, they look really good and i could only imagine how it is at night now. ever think of maybe painting the grill black to go with the flow of the headlights?

I agree!
A black grill would look sweet!
Along with some nice mesh 18's, and a CF hood................
hehehehehehehe

If you do ever pull them apart, I think it would look sweet if you painted the reflective part of the housing black... since you have projectors, you don't need it!

yea i think i might go w/ a black mesh grill - i kinda like the contrast.

yea mike 18s are on the way soon
i have thought about painting the reflectors black but i kinda like the reflective contrast - its almost too much black otherwise.

thanks for the comments guys

looks great! even if nobody would notice them, the most important person to satisfy is yourself, which is why we mod. Now naples, why don't you go and put on some neons and a fart can so people can notice you

You don't have to like them so let this all go and move on. If I see you posting more e-thug posts on the org, you're gone.

Those are gorgous! Bug eyes? I think they look more like cat eyes with the single projector like that! About $585 you say? Hefty pricetag but it looks amazing!

omg that is amazing.....its not even the fact that they look so hot sitting in the headlights but I cant even imagine how amazing the light output is at night.... it must be so awesome to cruise down a pitch black road and see faaaarrrr into the night ! .. I bet your projectors make the night look like daylight

that geek naplesmax is a punk...hes a jealous little kid of some awesome craftsmanship!, I hope he gets banned soon
