Did you happen to get anywhere with a foreground shield for the lowbeam TSX projector?

There was glare coming from the hidplanet shroud, so I painted a small portion with flat primer gray paint. It's not noticeable unless I look for it.
I got some better shots, but I have to wait until after work today before I can upload them.

It's a fine line to walk with the aiming. The driver side is currently aimed to how the stock reflectors are.
The TSX projectors are at the upper limit of high at this point. But the passenger TL is clearly too low. The cutoff line hits the pavement about 5 ft in front of the car.
The driver side currently has both cutoffs run parallel to each other when you see them shine on a wall next to the car.
The passenger TL slopes downward relative to the TSX, I want to keep it parallel.
Almost done with work....

damn man, the light output must be insane. Not only do you have one of the best single xenon projectors, you also have one of the best bi-xenon projectors. Cars behind you dont even need to turn their headlights on when they have you in front of them, im sure you light all 4-5 lanes of the highway up like DAYTIME baby lol

lol, thanks. I was trying to make this the last time I worked on my headlights, and over the 3 months, the project got more and more ambitious. At first I just wanted to put a better shroud on my X5 projectors. Eventually it became what you guys see here.
I'm hoping that I'll get those amber bulbs for the signal light this week. Then I'll open up the passenger side again, and raise the TL projector.
I'll post an update when I get around to finishing the X5 projector lights.
kidtronix, those are 350z track rims. I like the car looking OEM, so they fit what I was looking for.
