Batman - the lights look AMAZING.., although I was wondering why you didn't do the bottom portion of your lights (low beam) with the same jewel look?

Presumably, the Luminous Intensity of the LED is not great, which is why you left it alone? You've done it on the high-beam section - so how does that work out for night driving?

sorry for the millions of questions. I just think it looks really cool.

I never bothered with running the LEDs around the foglight area because they would come out looking more like a "C" than actually being a ring. The area the fog lights are in isn't a perfect circle like going around a projector.

I thought about running them around the turn signals before but never got around to it. Maybe next time

thanks I'm glad you like my work

Thanks for the compliment.

The only way I can make the LEDs brighter for daytime use is by using individual LEDs compared to a strip of them that already have the resistors in place. It takes longer, I have to measure and measure again before drilling a hole and then wire it all up from behind

my pricing is very fair (IMO) for what I do and for me to have to do the LEDs individually is going to make the cost prohibitive for someone that likes my work but doesn't have a deep wallet. I tried to keep my pricing within a range that allows the most people to be able to enjoy owning a custom set of headlights.

Often times the mods for our cars are more expensive for the same mod on several other types of car out there. And custom stuff is even worse when it comes to the price tag for most of it. I wanted to present something custom that most coupe/sedan owners could afford and have some input on how the final result would look.

I think next weekend I'll have time to do my LED mods to the lights...

dual clearance strips and a halo around each projector. I may actually do a halo around the turn signal ones too but I'm not sure just yet...
