hey does anyone know what size is necessary if I were to do the SMD LED rings OUTSIDE the housing? Is it going to be the same 95mm?

diodedynamics has 80 90 and 100mm.. any clue as to the proper size and who is the place selling that size? Im not calling Cincity to find out who their source is..doubt theyd tell me anyways...

Looks very good, is that carbon print or is it a genuine carbon wrap?

That looks like hydrodip to me. Looks good. It isn't my cup o' tea, but it is pretty original compared to just painting the headlights.

Just finished mine. Had to reopen because one halo wasn't working, so tip#1 check yours before you close the light. Also one light bubbled just after laying on a sun for 30 mins because I didn't use primer, so tip#2 use a primer.

OK, today I got moisture inside my lights, and I am 100% sure they are sealed, I have glue came out on all sides of the light so there is no leak. Did anyone have moisture right after you did your lights? Could paint gave up some moisture?
