^^^ Thanks, if you don't mind, please post a link again for the covers. I appreciate it.

By the way, since both of your threads are pretty new, I've merged them together to make you a progressive thread with all your new mods.

Cheers!

Car looks great, man...

Honestly...about the turn signal reflectivity...I am going to have to agree with the majority...even though I taped off the reflector part and left it chrome, not having the diffuser AND no chrome around the bulb DOES make it really hard to see the light. I tried brighter bulbs but during the day it's very hard to see...1 suggestion I would make for COOL and for SAFETY is doing the turn signal sidemarker mod.

i know it looks intimidating but it'll only take you an hour to make and install and costs $22 in parts from Radio shack...

Good luck!

PS...caliper covers...the drop/wheels/headlights flow VERY nicely together.

Thanks a lot for the compliment and the info Rockstar, I'm heading to FL with the fam for a few days but when I get back I'll check the info out. Definitely like the way the headlights look but def understand the safety issue. Also have another buddy trying to work on a solution for me.

FRONT CALIPER COVER



REAR CALIPER COVER



The rear caliper covers are an exact fit, the front caliper covers have to be slightly modified, no big deal though

Threw in the switchback lights today to try and get more light in there since I blacked out my headlights, I put a pic with the light off, one showing the white light and the other showing the amber light....

Disregard the first photo in last post, that was my headlights before I threw in the switch backs, this is the one with the amber

hey Devil....the car looks great overall....

i gotta say the caliper covers flow great with the rest of the car....they are looking so good that am convinced to buy em LOL....

couple pointers for ya:
1> I would go back to 6000K or stock HID's incase your still running 8000K
2> I have the complete headlight housing blacked out, what i did do the indicator housing was that, i painted all of it gloss black OTHER than the top side (which is still chrome)...this helped me get a lot of reflection and my lights are atleast 10x brighter than when I had the complete housing black....

Overall your car is looking off the hook....keep up the good work....

devilldawgg

Thanks alot Bro!!! Definitely think I'm going down to the 6k lights, with my front windshield being tinted def cuts back on visibility at night...

Nice car, nice mods. I have a few questions for you (hope you don't mind). How long did the baking your headlights process take I know it varies for everyone, but I am just curious.

One part I am confused about is when removing the diffusers you can't remove the chrome line. Did you remove the chrome line? Is that why everyone is saying your turn signals will not be visible? Haha I am confused.

Second. Wiring your parking lights to foglights....how was that and how long did it take you? Was installing the load resistors hard?

Okay I am done with my questions. For the next mod put 6k HID for your DRL. It will look nice .

devilldawgg

When you remove the diffusers it automatically loosens the chrome line, you can take it off if you want, i left mine on and used epoxy to make sure it stayed back in place. I painted the chrome that is on the side where the blinkers are that is why it is hard to see during the daytime.

I had someone professionally do my foglights so can't answer any questions on that, can say he's a professional and it took him about two hours to do it. The load resistors were super easy to install, took five minutes tops.
