-carbon fiber sides
-WDP color chrome strip
-UMNITZA color changing halos
-ZKWr lens

These would cost $260 plus cost of halos which are $300 and shipping…

i am looking for $400 plus trade for stock:
Have these been sold yet? If not, I'll PM or you PM for options with these I know these don't have halos anymore which is fine.

This particular set has been sold. Will post up more pictures this week of all of the custom work. BTW I will soon offer the "DEMON EYE MOD"..

just installed a set on my buddies TL and want to see how it holds up before I offer it for sale.

Where did you tap the Demon eye at on the projector? I was thinking of doing this with my last setup, but I was trying to figure out how to get easy access to the LED if it ended up burning out on me. I'm interested to see what you came up with.

There is no easy access. If you want actives you need a custom lower shield and tap a LED in the top of the projector.

Not worth it IMO. Honestly I see the color in my passive set 75+ percent of the time.

I know there is no easy access if it were to burn out. Pretty much why I scrapped that idea. I've come to terms with not adding any accent lighting just because it will eventually burn out and once I close up a set of headlight, I don't ever want to open them again lol.

I'll be working on another quad setup this summer, the Mini D2S 3.0 looks promising.

Yea I opted to skip the active LED for the demons. To be honest that flirts with the limits of the law. Something I didn't want to do.

Edit: Also if I were to do it again I would have just blacked them out. Which requires no additional lighting.

I ran the LED in front of the projector so it doesn't risk damage..I lost my phone but got another one. wish it was easier to just post pictures than uploading to computer, then photo bucket, then here.

sorry for the wait but i promise by monday the pictures will be up. i also wrapped a bezel in CF, I will post pictures of that soon too..

Have you ever thought of hydro dipping? Or would carbon fiber look to cheesy being dipped?

I actually bought a hydrodip machine about two months ago and the fumes are TOXIC so I'm building a spray booth type of structure which should be completed by this month and I will start dipping. I dipped a bezel and I'm not 100% sold on if its "legit" or "cheesy", but this doesn't mean cf is the only option.

Yes, I have done that before and it probably is the best looking for WDP. Shoot me an email if you have more questions/want pictures.
