Would it be possible to do a projector/angel eyes/clear lens retrofit on the lows only, and then only applying a clear lens to the highs? If so, I'm down. Most likely out of my price range but we'll see.

My suggestion for doing projector retrofits in the low beams is this: You will have to make clear lenses, correct? Closely examine the JDM projectors and notice that they have the amber parking lot on each side, hidden behind some diffusers. My suggestion is to smoke the edges of your clear lenses so as to hide the corners of the lights, similar to the JDM lenses. Otherwise you see inside too much of the headlight and it doesn't look right.


This is what I was talking about:



Notice how the lens over the sidemarker isn't clear like the rest of the lense. That might be something to look into.

I have to vote no unless the price is seriously lower than the $750 or so I can get an OEM projector set for and the craftsmanship is equally good. Do you think you can do as professional looking a job? What would be the rough price range for projectors with clear lenses and turn/accent sides similar to the OEM look?

Hey guys, I know it's been a while.

My exhaust has been done for some time, but I've been dealing with some personal tragedy, so I haven't been doing much in the way of this project - even my 3D gauge cluster has been coming along slowly. The garage has been a mess, I missed a couple paychecks in-between jobs, so money has been tight, and as I said, I have some personal issues I've been dealing with. Things are beginning to look up however and I hope to resume work on this project soon, given the interest shown (even by the amount of votes and not replies), I'd love to do this for the community. I have a feeling I'm going to need to invest in at least a few tools (heat gun comes to mind, and some way of molding or shaping glass..possibly also taken care of by a heat gun) before I can really get cranking on these.

The first set I'm thinking will be a high gloss black housing, clear lens, projector retrofit, possibly angel eye around the projector. I'm really hoping I won't have to invest in a set of JDM headlights again in order to do clear lenses.

@Swissferdi: Anything you want is possible. So yes.

@Richee: I have JDM projectors, so I knew what you were talking about. My signature is way outdated.
