I Finally Finished It! *Teaser*

I finally got my headlights done today! It was getting dark when I was trying to take pics so you'll have to excuse the "noise". I went a completely different route than I had planed on. I'm glad I did, it looks great. Can anyone guess what I did?


I'll get better pics and an explanation in a later thread. I just wanted to share this special occasion with everyone right now. I mean come on, it only took me like what, 4 months to get them done?

looks sweet

i wanna take out/black out the amber reflector on my stock headlights, but i hate the idea of taking them apart and re-sealing them. with my luck they'll leak and condensate and what-not.

That was my worry but everything went back together smoothly and I added a bit of extra silicone in the grooves so it should be good. I'm not too concerned at this point.
