Just finished clear coating all my parts. Started making wiring harnesses for the rgb LEDs . Hopefully will be installing next week. If nothing else they will be sealed.

That's the part I need to figure. Going for the demon eyes look. Once I get the projectors set I will figure that out and build my shroud extensions.

Is the pattern messed up on these too? Top right corner. Hard to tell for sure because of bad quality pics

I want some demon eyes on mines too but first i need to order some projectors, I'll probably be ordering in the next month or so.

Post some progress pics if you can, i would love to see how you mount the projectors, thanks! 👍👍
