Custom Headlights FOR SALE!
I am selling my 2006 projector fully custom headlights. These lights took me a year to finish. The finish product was basically what i wanted, with only a few snags in the process. Below are details of the build and lights.
I first purchased 2006 OEM projectors from Riverside Infiniti. Below are the other stuff i did:
FX-R Projectors with clear lenses
http://www.theretrofitsource.com/pro...roducts_id=101
Gatling Gun Shrouds
http://www.theretrofitsource.com/pro...products_id=72
Clear Lenses for the turn signals
http://www.theretrofitsource.com/pro...roducts_id=150
LED Strips from superbrightleds.com
2 Pairs of Halo Rings (different sizes)
7443 relays (for 03 conversion)
Color matched Gloss black
I used the Gatling gun shroud, and molded it into the foglight slot of the headlights. Originally i wanted the outside ring to be lit up with the Halo Rings. Unfortunately, the fog light slot is not large enough for that specific spot i wanted, so improvised. The LEDs were put on the main projecter for the Iron Man Effect. Below is a picture of how the accent lights look, when connected and turned on.
Now, when i finally installed the headlights (with Danny), i didnt connect the Halos or LEDs, mainly because i didnt have Halo converters. So what me and danny did was turn the bottom projector as the MAIN headlight, and the above one as a fog. I never ended up connecting the top one (laziness) and drove around with the bottom lights as mains. Below is a picture of the cutoffs. They have an interesting form, almost criss-cross. Since these are supposed to be fogs anyways, i never paid any attention to them.
Now, the reason why i ended up selling is 2 fold. First, after a certain amount of time, i noticed that the passanger side light was not sealed perfectly shut. You can tell by looking at the glass and seeing it touch the lights a bit. Because of that, humidity and some water seeped into the light. Since i couldnt figure out why or how, i kept on going with it. After a while, dust and debris accumulated at the bottom of the light. See pictures below.
The paint shouldnt be damaged, and the dirt should be easily remvoable and cleanable. But because of this, i decided to get Strafe V2 Headlights. Figure i might as well get something done right and be done with it. The headlights will need your bulbs, ballasts, and converters for the CCFL Halo Rings (they are like 10 bucks the pair.) The bottom projectors share the same bulb size (D2S) as the OEM ones. Another thing that i recommend doing is finding a way to cover the back part of the lower projector.
Finally, the important part. Price. Im asking 750 OBO. I will not do trades (unless its for some Varrstoens). OEM headlights alone cost $515++, and of course there is the custom work i did. You wont find any other headlights with what i did. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me, message here, or text me: 7862638238

The top projector was never connected, so i dont know how its cutoff is. It is, however, an OEM projector and was never touched, so i assume its unscathed.
Here is a few pictures of the lower projector cutoffs. They seem to be both perfectly tilted sideways, forming a funny X.
