heres my latest project..

test fit on car(no lens)



what you guys think?


props to TRS for the parts

 

i think it looks great man! congrats nice buiild, i want!!! =p

 

Very clean, I wish I weren't retarded or I'd build some haha, how hard is it to take the lens off the headlight? I'm thinking bout baking mine and painting them but scared to ruin them

 

**** man, couldnt get any easier to get the lens off, threw min in the over for ten mins, peled um right off, first time i did it, i used a heat gun, it worked but it was alot harder to do then the oven way.

 

Once I finish my headlights I will post a picture of how I did mine. Looks nearly the same. Great job

 

Looks good! output shots?

 

is there anywhere that you can just buy new lenses for the lights?

 

Nope, you gotta buy the whole light.

 

unless you have someone selling them used

 

What do you use to put the lens back on? And do you just let it dry or do you regale them do get them perfect?

 

you can use sealant to reseal the lens. u just have to glob a lot on and tape them together for a while. not guaranteeing they wont fog up though.

the correct way to do it is how the manufacturer does it which uses a butyl rubber strip around the headlight and you heat it up and seal

heres the link for butyl rubber

this

 

can you not just use the stuff thats already in there?

 

You *can* but it's not a sure way to get a guaranteed seal. Adding more sealant help a lot.

 

o ok sounds like a plan
