2004 G35 Coupe Quad Xenon headlights finally done

I finally finished my headlight project. And I've been running them for a few months now with no issues. This project took way more time than I thought. I probably heated and open the headlight assemblies 7 or 8 times. The final product was worth it, but it took forever. Infiniti FX Bi-Xenon headlights on the bottom and Acura TSX Xenon headlights on the top. Unlike O.E., I use the lower for high and low beam and the upper for fog. I also put in clear lenses and led switchback running lights and turn signals from The Retrofit Source. I covered the housing in vinyl carbon fiber. Light out put is fantastic. With the fogs on its more like have two sets of low beams.

That offset color scheme with the carbon fiber looks really good on a DG coupe. I think you should go with clear or smoke corner indicators though.

I Agree. Just cut out the factory amber lens it ain't pretty.

But it's like two sets of headlights... because it's two low beams lmao.

Ohh I meant the corner indicators by the wheel well, it would be nice to remove the amber lens from the headlight assembly though, would you just use an amber lamp replacement with the lens removed?

I just buy lenses of slightly larger sizes than the hole needed and swap them in. Some people just remove the amber and show the bare bulb.

In hindsight I think it would look better with a clear lens to match the led strip and have an amber bulb behind it. Thanks.
