Are you gonna paint the reflector?

 

[YelloEye]

Damn, I really want a projector with the flipdown shield, such a nicer beam pattern.

Get a set of FX-Rs.

I have an extra pair minus the clear outer part, sadly the reflectors dont match and that would bother the hell outta me, unless of course I got a big enough shroud.

My problem is I want Retrofit Source's FXR lenses.

Get a set of FX-Rs.

Depends on the look you're going for, leave it for now till you get your shrouds. Then put em on and hit the power to see if you like them with the reflector black.

I recommend you to paint it, the stock reflector may cause reflections.

X2..

 

[cobalt123]

alright, i got to take them apart and clean the fingerprints off them anyways

 

[arman14]

I kinda want to paint the shroud black on my retro.

 

[cobalt123]

the shroud for sho is going black and the reflectors are now black. installed them today without top peice for a idea.

1. the pics arent uploaded yet
2. they are not bolted in so the angle is off
3. the bulbs in them for the idea are h7s not d2s so the lighting is off

i dont like how you left the reflector chrome, you need to paint it black... or red

 

[nosfuratu9]

please for the love of God is there a write up on doing this? it looks like it'd be average to medium difficulty.

 

[dman090]

diego was SUPPOSED to make one...

 

[nosfuratu9]

that lazy piece of shit...


i think i'm just gonna buy the "retrofit your lights" kit from buyhids.com though.

 

[cobalt123]

No it's easy I'll find one the reflector is black noaz
