FRICKEN SWEET!!!!

i thought those were ur headlights on in a few of those pics... def not... just the last one right?

did u do just the 1 right now?

:shock: holy sh!t you werent lying when you said they would look as good as that original photo shop pic ...that the best mod i have seen as of yet...great job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those look really nice, although the reflector takes away from the "halo" effect.

Still sweet tho, how did you get the headlights apart? And how did you seal around the wires?

you're so handy! That's cool....just don't break the glasses used to form the rings before you get the other side done! LOL!

thanks for all the comments guys and gals

Haro
the headlights are on in the last one only
yes i only ripped one headlight apart, cause i really didnt know the outcome....i have the other side eyes ready to go, just have to take apart the Headlight

Ryan take off the clips and pry slowly between the plastic and the lens

your welcome btw :lol:

looks nice and bright.

Pat...is there anything YOU can't do with a light?

Very nice... 8)

Rob was the hook up for the LED's

BOB.....ya never know.... :lol:

Looks sexy Pat!

Good job. It's nice to see it complete. Not a huge fan personally cause it looks like they put out sloightly too much light and it reflects off the back of the housing too much. Might want to try blacking out the back half to reduce the reflection of the back of the housing .

WOW. I like that a lot. :shock:

That's a good idea Geoff, that's what I meant by the reflector killing the halo effect.

yes i already took the lights apart once after they were finished cause of a damn LED burning out..... I can always try it on the Pass side, before its final..

Keep the comments coming...

Wow, thats sweet lookin. 8)

looks great pat, but, what i would do, is look for some aluminum tape or something <that can take the heat of the light> and put it on the back side of the rings, to cut the glare. i really think the glare off of the reflectors kinda takes some out of it. but, very nice :D

Very nice... 8) I looked at doing this about a year ago, I even have the halos sitting around and a headlight all taken apart. I never got around to really working on it tho. But in the little time I did I had problems with the glue and holding them in place and the size of the eyes I had.

Could you get a pic with the flash off and you car in the dark (i.e. with no other light) A wright-up on where you got the eyes and the size of them, the glue you used, and etc. would be nice too.

wow, dude! Good JOB! Those look AWSOME!!! Now, when can you start on my car?

They look great.
The glare from the halos does make it look like the lights are on though.

Pat... looks good.
I agree, so something to cut the back lighting. Afterall they are only to look good on the front.
Nice table in the first couple..lol You took the Doritos!!!!!

How do you lose a thumbscrew doing this project?
(mumbles to self...about how he loses a 10mm socket between toolbox and car...smacks self in head)

Looks good

looks pretty cool. The only think i would be concerned about is: what did you make the rings out of? and if it is the acrylic im thinking of can they handle an entire nights worth of heat from low and/or high beams?

Other than that i think they are awesome.

This could get iinteresting..lol

Melted blobs of acrylic would light up pretty cool too :P

well the eyes took some abuse from the heat gun before they thought about even forming a ring....

My heat gun is not abusive..it's down right meaner than hell!

ya if the rings can withstand the 1000* that the heat gun gave it...im pretty sure that they car withstand the Headlights

Go look at your box..what is the real temp?

i have no clue...i will look later

I bet that looks pretty mean coming up fast in the rearview :twisted:

Thats cool.. just had to check! They do look pretty sweet!

except he has a L27 :lol:

i was wating to see who would be the first to comment....

Ok, I wanna know where you got those, cuz I wanna do it to my 96 now!!!!! They look freakin' awesome man, good work!!! :2thumbup:

thanks man...they still need a little work....but i made mine, i then discover that you can buy a ganeric set from Advance.....Mine are made from an acrylic rod then i made a jig to melt the ribs in the back

Ya but you made yours 8) Not those store bought -piece- of- ummmm what store did you say again :lol: :lol:


I know I Know..... they wont fit my body style. :roll:

Awesome job, Pat. Those eyes look real sharp in there. Keep up the R & D, they'll work out perfect eventually.

cool man u finally got pics of em :)

what size diameter are they? I dont know how to make them so would have to buy ones off ebay.
also you mentioned you took off the clips and pryed off the lens out, how did you reseal it? Im thinking of water entering in there

That's cool. I'd like it better, though, if instead of black, it was white to match the car color. But, not my car. Butt kicking though.

sle, can you answer my question plz..
