Is this possible or am i in way over my head. Im guessing ill need to find a company to make a clear lens mold of the foglight ones. From then i do wish to install HIDS in the foglights, but it could become problematic as do they even make projectors that small to fit a small area as the foglights? As i really dont wish to just have clear lens with hids as it will most probably shine on oncoming traffic. Plus projector retrofit will look way better, then again it might fit in the enclosure as ive seen aftermarket projector foglights for sale and they are quite small.
I guess this is a brainstorming thread, as ive had this idea this past week as the foglights arnt fitting in with my headlights and turn signals. Ps. I do recall TRDGT4 (the guy from NZ) have clear lens for the his gt4 foglights and they looked real good. I guess ill do some research and PM him about it. Only if my internet was not capped it wouldnt be as painful to go on the internet. -------------------- |

I can mold just about any plastic, and I will probably sell taillight cover on the internet, but making clear replicas it easy too, but right now I dont have the tools to make them, I will be getting the tools by next 2 months, after that Ill begin my taillight re-fabrication and make them with a new shape and with LEDs, also I will remake my headlamps and retrofit projectors, demon eyes, and LEDs and also I might re shape them and make the low and hi beams just 1 headlamp instead of 2 on each side.
oh and dude I definetly dont recomend HIDs on Celica foglights, since they are 95% plastic they could probably melt! -------------------- waiting for LEDs for next project WOW recieved the LEDs, just tested a set up on a breadboard and I can barely see anything lol. I think I'm closer to being blind !! |
