Ah these are cool! Would like to see how they look on the car! Bet that was a bit fiddly?

ye was bit of a nightmare but will get some pics up when there on

 

[jesus]

Could look alright - what colour car are they going on?

 

[Dave..]

You sprayed the full beam reflectors black? Genius.

 

[.LiamC.]

Sorry, but they look really cheap and tacky to me.

black car

dont use the car at night mate plus wasn't sure if its legal so kept standards for mot purposes

 

[ricky1989]

dont apologise mate each to their own, just fancied something a little different

 

[Spinksy]

Im surprised you went through all of that effort and didn't paint the main plastic insert black.......

 

[Jekyll]

Needs pics of them fitted to see whether they work or not.

 

[Ste182]

Looks like it could be cool obviously need to see them fitted but nice to see something new being tried out!

Re: finally finished lights ready to be fitted (pics on car now added pic heavy)

sorry pics arnt great and probably no to your guys taste

 

[banther]

To me it just looks like your car has conjunctivitis.

Looks interesting, I've never been a fan of the red and black combo though, I prefer the lime green/black.

Good job from the pics though, do you have a pic with the lights on ?

 

[AdDaMan]

I like it.
Wouldn't use it at night though!

wont be much good for night driving but if you use car at night you would just mask the reflectors off was going to wait till dark for some more pics, xenons wont be too bad but should imagine you will only see the bulb on high beam

 

[Jekyll]

Don't look too bad, but from a light point of view its not that good an idea, but like you said you don't use it at night. What happens if you needed to though, surely it wouldn't be great at dispensing light at night?

i have other vehicles, when i bought the car its was bit of a toy to be fair dont need the car i have a van and a road legal quad but i get bored easily and do enjoy tinkering with the car changing few bits and bobs. plus i always keep originals just in case i fook it up which im pretty good at doing

 

[Jekyll]

Fair enough mate. Looks pretty good imo.

 

[katana2]

Good job !

cheers mate ye i think it makes it look a bit different from the rest so why not still got standards for mot and another 2 headlights to play with if i get bored or want to take that bit of extra time so i can make it work at night but for now i dont need it at night so its fine

 

[alexr19]

I love the idea and I like the read. Just think the rest of the inside needs to be black. Especially on the black car. Top work mind

 

[ricky1989]

Keep you posted if it changes any more might start on the second lot see what I can do would have love to have sprayed indicator reflectors but need them even in day might try it tho see what happens coz the xenons at night are perfect aand high beam give off more light than I thought it would but still be no good on back lanes

 

[McGherkin]

Good effort, even if it's not to everyone's taste.

I think if the reflector was still silver they'd still look OK, if you do paint up the second set can you do a part-way through pic before you paint out the reflectors?

Are they LED high beams too?

I did put the smd bulbs in for the high beam but had to take them out as was bringing up faults on the dash so just standard high beam bulbs at the min and you mean you just want a pic of the head lights when fully split?

 

[BREMBO]

Looks pretty good that

I'd just like to see what they'd look like with the reflector still silver, so they would still be usable.

 

[Harpham]

I like the look of it from the front. Looks dodgy from the side view to me though lol.

 

[Lawro]

Not my cup of tea but kudos for trying something different!
