Looks good pad.

 

^thanks mike



btw. out of curiousity have you ever dealt with FX-R's before? I only ask because I'm rather unimpressed with them compared to MH1's given the crazy amount of extra work they need to install (not to mention the extra upfront cost, and bulb seating issues I had). I mean the output is still marginally better, but not really worth it IMO.

 

Once forever ago, I perfer the MH1's. Ive never had one issue with any of them over the years and the different gens. Never had any fail on me either.

 

Heard nothing be great things about FXR's with a morimoto stage 3 kit with 50w ballasts, supposed to be awesome.

 

oh its nice dont get me wrong.. but better than the MH1 for the work involved.. mehh I'm not so sure about that.. the MH1 seriously takes like 10% of the work in a vast majority of cases and it needs no mounting hardware past what is already supplied. I'm interested in seeing how the MH1 6.0's coming out this year will look

 

mmmm 6.0s look aamzing!

 

i have fxr, im fairly new to retrofitting, but i really enjoy the light out put, very wide but still great distance, nice blue/purple lines . Runnin the 3" lens, 5000k 50w fiveballast and bulbs.

 

^^^any pics of the headlights in your siggy?

those look badass dude! great work. my boss has a black toyota FJ that i think would look the business with a set of 'fits

 

I just get so pissed when aligning mine, i screwn them in with the lenses off and the projector snug but not tight, turn them on and aim the. Tighten and seal, then the way i have them screw down isnt the same the next time around because of the lense and all the wiring i have, they are just a headache to get right for someone who doesnt do it alot.

How do you guys align yours?

 

 

are you referring to MH1's or FX-R's?

 

 

^^^ love the eyelids. I'm biased though...

...

 

wow looks great. thats definately a good way to do eyelids compared to the usual way ppl do them

 

Well, thank you.

 

onto the next set for this weekend.. so much easier than the tacoma from last weekend

 

wow. those look amazing! I may have to try that. Specific type of paint you used?

 

id assume oem color match paints

i really wish my shrouds had the silver outline like that

 

sandable primer
rustoleum satin black
some misc. bright red paint I had laying around (which matches very good to victory red I've found out)

 

they are installed on the car now.. just a few shots I had laying around






ill have some installed shots when TRS gets the updated LED power inverters to him.

 

those look like they are going to look great!

 

ill just leave this right here.






Stock headlights with bezels painted flat black
fxr3.0 with painted interior and interior halo
gloss black panamera shroud with 100mm ccfl behind
5000k d2s bulbs and matsushita gen IV ballasts mounted under headlight for that OEM look

will post high quality pics after i swap the passenger side lense, it so hazy and cracked right now.
