Projector Repain FINISHED ^_^

Well, I got tired of my Chrome Projectors, So I took it upon myself to color match them to my car *aka black* it is too dark to take pics of them in the car now, however here is some of the production pics, PS. If you want me to do a how-to on this, lemmie know (since the projectors are a lil dif from the stock ones)





And Finally..... Their looken at yoU!


Any way, took me most of the day to doo *do to multiple trips places and interuptions.*


Any who like I said, if you guys want a How-to lemmie know, I took plenty of pictures

nice,, looks good

STEDDY - the black ones come flat black.. on a nice shiney black car they dont match that well.. I would recommend everyone that gets the black to either gloss them, or repaint them altogether..

they look soo good. I am still trying to convince my brother to gloss black his.

COLOR MATCHED LASER BLUE




They are very easy to take apart.. Just make sure you get really good SILICONE

wow they look great.

out of curiosity. are the clear lenses on our projectors exact replicas of the stock lens?
The cogs are turning in my head right now....

Is this the same process that you have to go through to take the projector apart? The cutoff on mine is tilted and I'd like to figure out how to fix it. If so, do you have pics of what the projector assembly looks like?

yes sir I do, here ya go.



sorry I didn't really take any full pictures of just the housing, because you don't need to remove them for this mod. however as you can see the projector (outer most on both lights) is held down by 4 bolts or screws so it is easy to pull off.

however if youre cutoff is crooked, check the tightness of the mounting tabs first, I know mine were crooked when I got them and I just tweaked with the mounting tabs under the hood and it straightened out. I dunt care what the company says, they are not an EXACT fit, but ckise enough, however it does seem to caus a lil allignment issues sometimes (not allways)

any way I got some homework to do tonight, than I will post up a tutorial either when i am done or some time tomarrow.

P.S. I dud very lil to no sanding, why? because I got plastic bonding paint/clearcoat. the only sanding i did was to get rid of some bumps in the original paint/fab of the headlights, so now they are spotless.

See you guys either later tonight or tomarrow.

-Steve Paintballing is fun ^_^ just painful.
