Default Headlight Project

Ok. Everyone post up what they want me to do. I am getting a Headlight Donation soon. and i have 3 things i want to do. please post up which ones you guys want to see first so i know in what order to do them some would take longer than others.

1. Super crystal clear Custom Acylic Lens made for our headlights. its just going to be a clear piece of acrylic custom made for our headlights to replace the old front lens. If enough people like this one i can get a Mold made for us for 1500 for both sides i believe. it will be EXACTLY like our stock ones except much much clearer. thinner. and stronger to allow more light out, also without all those lines. if enough people want it i can put the money down first and keep the mold and if you want you can buy it from me. for sure i will be making 1 set but unsure of the mold at this moment

2. Paint matching the interior of the headlight housing to your car color to reduce glare. everything will be painted except for the actual projector and the high beam reflector. black is also optional. i will be doing this to see what it looks like before i do it to my actual car.

3. Since everyone is asking about these headlights. (picture below) i have just started working with fiberglass and will be "attempting" to make headlight identical to picture below. everything will be the same, except where the high, low, and turn signal light go there will be a clear acrylic lens to protect the bulb, and its contents

this is a blurry the stock lens is if you look through it. the new lens will be crystal clear with NO lines and much clearer like looking through glass. notice how blurry my brown gate it through the lens. also notice how the high beam light gets shattered all over the place and not focused
