Well as many of you know I've been wanting to crack my headlights open again and do some painting, but I never have the time or motivation to do this, and I really hate painting. So, I'm going to have the world famous Retroshop do me up some lights. I have two ideas in mind but not sure which one I want to go with. I'm leaning towards one of them but would like some opinions. Both options would paint everything flat black, including the turn signal, high beam buckets, and most likely the reflector. First option is to put in the larger shrouds and paint the whole thing red, like my red eyes Photoshop I did a while back. Second option is to install the smaller shrouds and paint the front of the shroud red, just to give it a touch of color. Your thoughts?

Morgan are you going to send in your stockers or have JJ order new ones?

JJ is doing new lights and I'm going to sell the ones I have now. You want them? They aren't perfect but still look good.

I would like JJ to do me a set but have been putting it off... I was thinking about sending in my stockers and having him work his magic on them..
Was just wondering if you were going to do the same.. I might nab them from you but not sure yet

I'll sell them to you pretty cheap. There's a small scratch inside on the chrome on the passenger side and I ended up cutting a little too much of the black bezel off when I cracked them open. Can't tell at all when they are installed. The driver side has fogged up on me a couple times but hasn't done it the last several times through the car wash. They would look sweet with the same Lamin-x you have on yours. I'll get some hi-res pics when I swap them out so you (or whoever else buys them) know exactly what you are getting.

Yes it was! I was thinking that I needed something else other than a solid black reflector but I never would have thought of that.

ummmmmmmm, thats a typical Friday fellas. :D Had those open before lunch today. Spent the afternoon cutting and fitting 3 sets of gatling gun 2.0 shrouds. (well.......not all afternoon - about 90 minutes).
Its a roller coaster right now, last week 1 set. This week, 4. Painter doesn't know........I think he's going to jawdrop when he gets here. 4 sets of heads, 1 set of tails. Hope his heater is working in the shop. LOL

So, Jeremy, I had a random thought this morning. Will the projectors come pre-aligned horizontally? Since the shroud is cut out for the bezel, I won't be able to turn them...
0212353
11-13-2012, 04:51 PM
They are bench aimed, and even if they need a slight adjustment, that is still doable. ;)
