Thanks for the compliments everyone.

As Aaron posted above, that is easiest way to get ahold of him by pm.

You will not find his quality even remotely close anywhere else on this site

Because bluelights are ricer, you dont need blue bulbs to get the color you see factory HIDs have, its in the lens. 6000k and up lights shine blue on the road and look blue to people, 4300k and 5000k shine white on the road and still look blue to people.

wow I missed this one. I can explain this with a simple pic.



See that blue streak along the cutoff line? That's the blue you see in those audis and bmw headlights. The bulbs themselves are a 4300k color hid. the light they output and shine on the road is a yellowish white color. The bulbs shown in this pic are 5000k, pure white. The way that blue happens is light refraction along the cutoff line, where the light bends and creates that blue light. if you've ever looked at a diamond under bright lights and see all the different colors, or the way light bending through a prism works, it's exactly the same effect. The reason the blue bulbs are "ricer" is because they're trying to achieve the same effect that HID projectors make without doing it the right way and retrofiting hid projectors in. Trust me the blue that hits you when your eyes pass through the cutoff is far more intense than what a blue hid bulb can ever achieve.

I ask the same as well and no one ever does francis never responds at least maven responds with some remark. They look good. We use the same brand headlights now that we can get them wholesale. we just add the boot cover in the back that TRS offers.

These arent the lights I normally build with. They are actually a huge PITA to use, virtually everything I build uses DEPO lights. Francis is a hack, but people like pretty "demon eyes" and halos so thats what he does.

I still havent seen apic from you
