Projector Retrofit - YOU be the artist!
I have a set of aftermarket replacement CHROME housings from an 08' F150, and will be retrofitting them with mini H1's; I want YOU guys to be the inspiration for a completely unique, custom job.
They are brand new, and I think the whole "chrome" flow is a little weak. So, tell me what you would like them to look like! Give me ideas, and lets see what I can't come up with!
My ideas so far:
Carbon Fiber look
Black out Gloss (black out the cone too)
LED Halo (not a real "halo" more of a behind-shroud glow - any color)
Other various colors - idk about this one?
White out
What do you guys think? What would YOU like to see in a custom job?

I am thinking maybe gloss blacking the entire assembly (other than the projector shroud) and maybe incorporate an Audi-esque LED strip somewhere in the light.. maybe running from the inside bottom corner, up the side and around to the top outermost corner. You'd have to spray tint the top of the lens (not a big deal as with the black insert, you wont see it anyway) to hide the LED strip when not in use.

The "audi" style LED strips look bad on the F150 lights IMO, I've seen them. I'd say either leave the whole thing chrome and remove the orange reflector, or do the whole thing black (shroud included). I'm a fan of simplicity, not all the LEDs and flashy crap that the ricer crowd jacks off to.
