Hey Ghayes23... Did you put in a clear lense on your projectors? Or do the color mod to them? The black housing looks great on your OB!! NICE job

I haven't modified the projectors at all yet. I'm working on a set of quad projectors though, and those will have clear lenses and the color mod. I should be finished with them sometime in the next month or so.

Ghayes, I tried your trick for the side markers on my OEMs and just broke them(both of them). Is there anyway you can give me a little more detail on how you got them opened up, lol.

^huh, I'm sorry that it didn't work. I opened up two pairs like that without any issues. I just did it very slowly a tiny bit at a time. I'll try to see if I can open up my orange markers and make a video or something.

No worries I had already ruined them doing something else so that's why I didn't care. Still I just couldn't find whatever sweet spot you found. That vid would be nice.

hey Ghayes, for the clear corners...did you use the dupi-color flat black paint as well? and did you sand / primer the clear corners prior to painting? and how many coats of each did you use...?

your lights all look awesome man.
