HPTDoh Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 Looks good! Have any shots of the back of the housing to see how far it sticks out?Also we need installed and cutoff pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serge Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 Good job! TSXs are very good for our cars... small, yet performance is fantastic. I just wish they were Bi-Xenon Any idea for a shroud? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Быстров Posted April 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 ill add pics of the back of the housing soon, doesnt stick out ALOT, just a little. as far as shroud, i dunno if im going to make one, the chrome on there seems good enough as it is, if anything will be visible from the out side of the glass then ill bondo the inside of it and just make it a solid peace.

Dan A Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 So, I've been thinking about this mod for a long time and been interested in what others are doing and looking at factory headlights in parking lots etc. Seems to me that the funky thing about most of these retrofits is that the projector is too small for the size of the headlight. Makes it look a little wierd. I think that is where a decent sized shroud can go a long way in filling that empty space. Any OEM projector headlight fits the space really well from top to bottom.In any case, I'm sure you will be really happy with the difference of the lighting.

Быстров Posted April 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 Advance auto sells good chrome paint. i wet sanded the old "shiner" with 1000 grit SP then clear coated it first so no fine scratches can be found cause chrome paint is really thin, then i pianted over it with chrome and cleared it again. looks like its supposed to be :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
