Thanks Chapolas

working on some custom headlights atm aswell

i recently bought some faulty angel eyes for a little project im working on

so i cooked them (250c for 10 minutes)



prised them apart



and then took of the inserts and OMG the design of the angel eyes is soo shabby! i was going to cut of the clips so they look "unbroken" but when i checked, i found they are there for a reason...to hide the LED bulb!





i can see why the angel eyes failed, dont think they will last very long tbh....
im puzzled as to why they have been designed like this. all other aftermarket angel iv have seen for other cars seem spot on

hopefully il be able to redesign these and improve on them :trampoli:

projectors fitted


some one off lights coming soon :headbang:


update*
just been working on the Halo tonight, loads of trial and error and still not perfect but here are a few progress pics

The halo first started off as a clear acrylic rod. which was baked for 5 mins at 200oc


once it went soft i quickly shaped it before it harden again
here you can see i got it pretty much spot on


Then i chopped off the plastic clips at the front
(the rod fits nice and tightly which is a bonus!)





Then i made the grooves the give the ring the angel eye effect


and tested with 2 blue leds (this is just for testing purposes, i will be using ultra bright white LEDS









still needs a lot of work doing to it atm
