Owner sent me over some on-car pics of the headlights he purchased.......turned out great.
He's un-sure if he wants to re-install the red covers.....I'm 50/50 on that.....It think they look great as is.......thoughts????
Got these guys all polished up and somewhat ready to go....I think I might clear coat the lights to give them that perfect look.
Problem with these lights is that the lenses had a fiberglass cover over them that scratched up the crystal clear look they had....owner plans on putting them back on, but wouldn't mind rockin' them naked either....I don't blame him, they look sick all black. Most people that polish headlight lense only deal with yellowing...not deep scratches....so we gave it our best shot.....and back to what those 'other' guys do, they NEVER touch the insides of the lenses....as they can't get them open....well....we do!!!!! Polished the insides of these bad boys as well. They turned out pretty good, but they were so beat up and rubbed the wrong way that I think a clear coat is all we can do now....we'll see.
Other than that, these beasts are ready to ship out. I can't wait to see them back on their mother ship!!
Had to take some extra care with these MC-R shrouds that cover the FX-R projectors I'm retrofitting into these Solsti lights. These are a newer-ish shroud that I have yet to install, so I'm pretty stoked for the outcome. The Halo will sit behind the oval cutouts and will give a nice even glow due to the frosted plexi lens in between.
Waiting for them to set and I'll have these back together in no time.
Got the projector taped off and everything ruff sanded for primer.
Primer down
High-Temp Low-Glass Black Down
Ready for paint on the shroud...just need to get the red!
Got the lights assemblied, aligned and mounted.
They are going to keep curing overnight and I'll get back on these.
Next is paint (two different colors), CCFL lighting, then permanent mounting.
Should have these done by weeks end no problem.
Oh...and in case you're wondering...yes, the driver side light needs adjustment....the bulb is off a bit....but this was just to set them in the housing.....testing phase
