Damn that sucks. I know the feeling though. Hopefully TRS will take care of us both.

Here's some progress pictures of my retro.

specs:
FX-R Stage III from TRS
Matte Dark Shadow on Trim and Buckets (slightly darker than the sterling gray, looks amazing with gloss)
Blue Flame Panamera Shroud with gloss Dark Shadow painted on just the 'holes'. (i like how it turned out)
Morimoto Xb-led 120mm, 90mm







Not sure if i like the look of the exposed halo... but I kinda like the light... is there blue flame lens tint haha


Blue 'demon' eyes - will be switched and only on during "offroad use"


The pic below is the 'sun light demon eyes'. basically when thereis bright sun light at the right angles the lens will appear blue.



The exposed halo really washes out the inner one. I may consider trying to tint it so its not as bright/ slightly darker amber and hide the white during the day..(idk yet)


What are y'all opinons on the outer halo?

I think it looks good man, I wouldn't worry to much about it.. maybe u should have gone with white in the back and yellow up front or vice versa just to have some color difference
