My ass was long asleep before this thread was created. I need my sleep.

OP the lights look awesome! I was pretty nervous while opening mine up but the end result was well worth it

Good Job! Not so bad after you get past the fear of getting them open is it?
I like the white, I was thinking that for mine aswell, maybe the next time i work on them. Again, Great job.

Love the white too! But I'm biased cause I have a white-shroud for the lowbeam as well.
Kept the part on the turn signal chrome/silver though.

look familiar djmanu?



This is the set up I did for my car last June. I have white accents on my car because I was tired of the blacked out theme which almost everyone has.

Which is the reason why I also went with a white shroud.
I did it over a year ago and it's interesting to see that everyone still goes blacked out [or stock shroud].

I did these last summer as well which are unique:

I didn't particularly care for it either but its just what the customer wanted.

I suggested white or some kind of dark blue if he was daring but he was stuck on the red.

lol. I dont want to see how his car turned out...

He came from a TL and it actually just got totaled by a flood and he's back into a TL.

Yeah, the red is a head turner in the wrong way but to each their own. I had red on my MDX shrouds on my stratus retro but that was color matched to my car, turned out well there. I'm thinking of color matching the headlight assembly and painting all four shrouds black since i'll be opening the headlights once again to swap out projector internals.

nice headlights. I wish I had the balls to do it myself. I did it once on my buddies MK4 golf and it was pretty easy but I am not daring enough to do it on the TL where a mistake can cost me 300-400$. Golf headlights are cheap so I didn't care.
