$1000? you do retro's too? Years supply of pizza and light beer? lol not bad.

 

Looks GREAT Papa. Ive been wanting to do this halos and a few other paint projects on the front of my car for a few months now but im leasing. In the spring Im gonna check on buying out my lease so Im kinda waiting on that. But anyway Im wanting to match my LP paint so I need to clear the paint when Im done? Also what did you use to attach the new clear turn? Oh yea again they look GREAT!!

 

looks super nice

 

wow! they came out great! at one point it even looks like you don't have any clear lense!!!

 

I just found this little DIY for the lenses for anyone looking to get the fog out. not on a G35 but the idea is the same

nice job. looks a tad bit darker than mines.. but how do u keep your cover so clean:P mines had oxidation in them after i was finished.. had to redo them all over.

 

how do u get that blueish look inside the fogs?

 

Its the bulbs hese using . They have a blueish tint to them hence the color.

 

Chris, I was thinking. You should put the OEM grill back on and paint it flat black like you did with the lights and leave the infiniti logo silver. I think it would look badda$$ with the new painted lights. JMO lol.

 

so his fogs are blue? and the hosuing inside is reflecting off the blue bulb?
are your fogs blue also?? im thinkin about changing my 8000k lights to 6000k and putting 8000k into the fogs

 

Did you say you bought new headlights? How did you get them so damn clear?!

 

papa the headlight came out very very nice.
IP sedan and black headlights is looking mighty sweet.

 

a lot of aftermarket bulbs have blue tint on the them. they are still yellowish/whiteish but never blue.

 

I think I'd have to do one more set of my own before I would do someone elses. Unless they are like me, open to whatever happens when doing the mod...good or bad. We had a number of issues we had to work through but it was all worth it. I would hate it if something were to go wrong and have to feel like I am held responsible to fix them. Lots of other details I haven't mentioned here just because I'm trying to keep it short...not doing a good job of that so far Maybe it would be helpful if I posted what exactly we ran into?

Thanks Buckeye
Yes, a few coats of clear if you are doing a gloss finish. You will also want to wetsand the clear with a 2000 grit sandpaper and then us a polish. This all ofcourse after you've done the initial primer and sanding. It might be worth it to have a body shop match the paint, unless you can get it in a can. I used a 5 minute expoxy I got from Kragen. I used toothpicks to apply the expoxy to the bezels and then placed the lense on.

New headlights/lenses. I purchased a set from ebay. (non-OEM..aftermarket). I plan on putting a clear bra on them. Need to make some calls about that this week. You going to JDM Theory? You can see them there. I am going to show. Oh, and Buckeye was right, I have PIAA 4000K fog bulbs in there. One is actually burnt out so I need to go back to stock for now

I'll keep that in mind Chris I like my new grille alot right now but may look into that option for future Thanks

Thanks again guys. I already have plans on what my next set will look like. Projectors are def in my future along with Halos....Tim, here I come!

 

I plan on painting my grille tomorrow morning and do my headlights this weekend..thanks to ya'll i now know what to do but i'm in the dark on where you guyz bought all your materials(sand paper, flat black primer, etc..). Any help on this would be appreciated.
