Oh man cutting the stock lugs would be beyond me, I'd have to get new legs if I took off the spacers later and got different wheels. Do the v2 spacers have built in legs or not?

Skeeterbop 11-14-2011 04:37 PM

Question, what kind of tires did you get to replace the stockers?

Yeah dude i've got no choice, but luckily there's no issues since. As of the spacers, both of them have built in legs.

DIY Headlight mods
 
Hi folks :hello: im sorry for the delay of the pics as i'm a bit busy lately..

anyway, here's the DIY as i promised! :tup:

first off, i removed the strut bar and engine covers, continued with front bumper and headlights :tup:

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7033/6...68bc2394_z.jpg

next, here comes the HARDEST part. You guessed it right, opening the HEADLIGHT!! i used both Simota's and Digitonium's DIY and these took me about 1 and a half days to open!! :shakes head:

I didnt take pictures when i pried the headlights as im too busy opening them and my hand's all messed up with all those greases from the bolts and nuts :p

after 1 1/2 days, i've successfully removed them!! thank god i didnt screwed up! :happydance:

taking off the boomerang amber reflector

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7161/6...e9f6baf1_z.jpg

at first, i'm thinking of only blacking it out but then the ideas come to me and i tried all of them and come out with these! i look at Alex's and Igor's work for my inspiration :tup: thanks to both of you guys :tiphat:

blacking out the housing :

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7001/6...7877a8de_z.jpg

as of the shrouds, i sent them to the painting shop as i wanted to match my exterior :tup: and usually pearl white comes with many variations of hue

http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6050/6...b4452016_z.jpg

testing the LEDs and Halo rings :happydance: and yeah this is before i blacked out the housings :p
