Ill get a better pic of the complete circuit that will be used for the turn signals.

Installed the new 10kg springs in the rear, now a lot lower in the rear. The front is completely maxed out but the fitment is not as close to the fender as the rear. Once the custom front suspension work is done, camber should match and the 4 corners should be lip to fender.

Whose white tsx in the back?

AcuraRolling

Bump

iCrap

yea also wondering what's new with this

AcuraRolling

sorry for the delay guys. haven't done much to the lights been really side tracked. My brother car is finished, if your going to Wekfest LA he'll be their @ Infinitewerks booth and ill post pics of his car tomorrow or the next day.
Also been working on VIP style tables for my car. Wheels are off getting re-finished "updates soon" if you follow me on the gram you may already have an idea whats to come. Again, ill get back to work on the lights everyone always ask me the progress, guess ive been slacking heavy.

AcuraRolling

*brothers car*
I volunteered to install his coils, uca's, and ball joints. never again will i do such a thing!

then got it all alignment for him

AcuraRolling

another thing ive been working on. This nice expensive acrylic i plan on using in an up-coming project. I was going to scrap my idea of the led turn signals in lieu on this material, but decided against it for now.

AcuraRolling

and this was done two days ago. smoke vinyl, small portion of mirror gold overlay "wrong material" gotta find the right material to wrap the beak nice and solid

xtcnrice

Nice thread, man...always love seeing people push the limits and not be afraid to get their hands dirty.

AcuraRolling

the final result of the wheels setup. really hard to capture the piano black wheels without direct sunlight.

iSeeYouTwo

Fitment looks good but need better pics.... can't really see the style of the wheel.

i was thinking about doing the headlights on my car as well if i keep it. I've done projector retrofits in the past but how hard is this would you say?

AcuraRolling

agreed. ill see what i can do

i cant really compare to other retrofits as this is my first one, and its down right difficult. like really difficult.

AcuraRolling

spent a little time yesterday working on the lights. just cosmetic changes. I think this came out much nicer than the silver. going to wet sand lightly today to removal some orange peel

soupi

looks great so far, really innovative.

alexbenz

how does the mounting work? are you able to adjust the beam or beams when done? i'm not familiar with these new jewel lights

AcuraRolling

I'm using part of the oem mdx housing using the existing mounting points. Just like normal headlights have the adjustment knobs on the rear same goes for these lights, thier are two one for low beam and one for high beam.

AcuraRolling

Here's a better pic

alexbenz

can you take pics of the mounting areas when you get a chance...

also how do you plan to seal the back of the headlight? the mdx housings stick out quite a bit, no?

iSeeYouTwo

Wheels are dope! I'd rock 'em. And those headlights

what an awesome thread!

keep up the great work dude...

in for more progress/pics!

AcuraRolling

Using plastic welder and some PP plastic weld epoxy. Sand smooth as possible for An oem look and paint. Also plastic welding the inside of the housing so it's nice and uniform.


Thanks man! I'm debating on scrapping the turn signal section. Compared to the jewels the turns signal area I created looked dated. I have completed one but I have decided rather do a simple design with switchback capabilities.

alexbenz

looks like you know what to do, close to be done? i wanna see the final product sealed up and on the car...going to look sexy for sure

iSeeYouTwo

Np! And I think that would be a better idea. Honestly, all the holes bothered me a bit since they didn't look completely symmetrical, lol. Wish I had the patience/skill to tackle such a project.

AcuraRolling

Thanks for the honesty. I was gonna keep it because i put so much time in, but this has to be next to perfect so it had to go.


all holes filled and sanded nice and smooth yet again. headlights on hold until my switchbacks arrive to lay the shape.

batman balls! that looks awesome!

am eager to see how it turns out...

AcuraRolling

Finally got my shipment and went to town on these turn signals. I may smoke out the strip but not sure yet, but leaning towards smoke.

iSeeYouTwo

Idk if I like it

Sure wish I could see them...

opboarding

I don't like the U shape at all. It doesn't flow well with the lines of the housing. I think it would look better as double(or even a single) line that follows the housing.

alexbenz

agree this shape flows better

iSeeYouTwo

OP hit the nail on the head.

ssjoeboe9

looks like a candy cane

iTrader: (5)

+1 not digging the U shape

hopefully the OP will prove me wrong...

iCrap

its a little un-even.

AcuraRolling

lol I agree guys 100%. In all honesty I just wanted to get the section finsiehd. Yep I rushed it and it's not 100% but when thier on opposite ends of the car it will he hardy noticeable if noticeable at all. Also I went ahead and smoked the frosted white out which makes it even less noticeable. As always I appriciate the input.

iSeeYouTwo

The idea/concept is golden....excection, not so much. Lol

I honestly think they will ruin the classiness of the jewel eyes. Might as well do it right now since your headlights are already taken apart.

In for the outcome regardless
