Default LuxuryMods.com First Ever FX-R Retrofit into a 2GS

Here are a couple of photo's of our last retrofit.

Customer wanted "sport design" style housing, cleared turn signals, and FX-R bixenons.

We now have FX-R bixenon retrofit brackets for those who want to attempt their own installs. PM us for more info.

Here's the results. Hopefully he'll snap some beam shots to post here when he's ready.

Before, test fitting:


After painting:


Sealed up, front shot:


Rear of the headlight, everyone seems to always ask...we use a rubber boot with a nice tight factory seal.

FX-R comes with crystal clear lens already, nothing modded. Now if you were to use a regular "FX" projector, then you'd mod it some.

Can't beat a projector that properly disperses your beam...

We did a set for member Howiedoit, looked 10x better than stock...

Yep, HUGE difference. I'd been running plug and play HID's for a long time until the TSX's. I let one of my friends drive my car after the TSX and the whole time he was driving, he kept trying to figure out how to turn off "the high beams".
