Lol nice! Think it would look better on the rear where it's at. How does it look up close?

I like the white paint on it, it really contrasts and makes it look a lot better. It looks like this app on my phone TOYOBD1. I like it placed on the back but it looks a bit small since the rear of the sc is huge. Other than that it looks great! lol


Also I wanted to ask you if there was any space on the bottom of the chrome housing between the projector and the outside lens in this area? I see a bit but I'm not sure if that goes right up to the lens or if the lens bottom is meant to be there?


I'll be opening and painting my housings in the near future and I will be doing something like this to look like the newer Lexus "check marks", unless what you do with your city light is better looking. I just don't want to block light from the projectors. Sorry for the big post, was just thinking of some stuff while waiting for updates on your city light mod

Sorry no update yet, graduated college, looking for work, and just moved houses so everything car related has been postponed. I think after the new year I'll get back on the saddle, first step is to print the final prototype.

nice dude! 3d printers are fun! speaking of headlight mods i cant wait to start on my crazy idea... LOLOL its going to me amazing! when you print, make your own suports.. it will save more plastic than having the program calulate supports for you.. and id need to see the actual files but sometimes just printing it at a different angle would cut down time and material.. i 3d printed something for my sc a while back and all i did was rotate the peice and make a flat section and it cut my print time to 3 hours instead of like 9 hours and it was way less material.. there was no supports at all

clear lenses will not be printed, i'm not aware of any printer that can print that clearly. this is just for the custom LEDs. i'll also be posting my 92-94 custom tail lights here.

If you want clear lenses buy those ugly halo ebay headlights and just use the lenses and put them on OEM headlights....I may end up doing this in the future

valentines day is killing my funds lol. hoping to get some freelance work soon since i'm kinda broke so printing this stuff is on the set back right now. i'll keep working on just the 3D models for now. however i got all the materials for my tail lights ready, i'll bake them open tomorrow morning and start working on those. should i make a new thread for them or just stick it in here? i'm thinking a new thread would be better because you don't see many custom 92-94 tails.
