Right now I have two sets of lights circulating. I am working on number 34. Its hard to judge how long because looking back at the list most people end up not responding when their turn comes up because of the wait.



Militia310 I added you to the list.

Well brother I have nothing but time... atleast until December. So I will just continue to look for Factory lights for you. Also I will probably try to find a 3rd brake light sent to you to have tinted. So whats a good deal on Headlights? i will keep my eyes open.

Lordfeyr, quick question, if I get on the list to have headlights painted, would you be able to ship them out while they are still apart? The reason I ask is that I found projectors that can be installed inside factory lights but the light has to be apart to install them. I figure that I could get my lights painted, which is what I want to do anyway, and put the projectors in and seal the lights myself. These are the projectors I was looking at: http://www.retrosolutionsllc.com/ser...ETROFIT/Detail
Please let me know. Thanks

Sounds good. If you can get a set for 50 bucks plus shipping that is fair.

Absolutely. If you do not want me to seal them I can ship them back opened. Retrofit Solutions has been around a while but this is the first I have seen of a premade kit. Price looks pretty fair as well considering if you bought projectors straight from a bmw or lexus etc... you would be looking at about 150 just for the projectors. I cannot comment on how well these project and spread the light. Maybe you can ask them for a shot from a distance to see how much road is lit up other than the cutoff on a wall. I know the BEST projector to have is either the LS430 Projector or the Acura TLs since they shoot very wide beams and will light up 8 lanes of traffic.

I'd like to get on the list please. Satin black with smoked reflectors and black turn signal bowl. If you can ship them unsealed, that would be great. Then I can decide whether or not I'm going to go with the projectors once I get the lights from you. Just wondering, will there be any difference in shipping cost because they won't be sealed? Thanks

No differences in shipping price. I can mock them up without sealing them so that they fit in the same size box. I will put you on the list.

Lol believe me when I say I want to get everyones lights done. Ccol has my last set right now and am just waiting for a response as to when or if I can expect them back... I'm looking for more lights. Bad new is I may have to charge more upfront with a bigger core return to make sure I get ligjts back.

Ill be updating some new lights I'm working on tonight. I finished a set of f250 lights and am doing a custom set of f150 lights with halos....

I just finished these lights for a member here who has a nice f250.


He wanted the reflectors blacked out with the insides gloss black. Trim, Turn Signal Bowl and Bulb Cover.

I think they came out great!

Before




After
