lol @ the squinting, yea totally looks like it from that angle, I didnt wanna color that part and lose light output from the main headlight.
And that's my buddys 350z by the way I was working on his lights, I got a G35 coupe with a very similar storm trooper theme, we will be doing a photoshoot soon

looks like marilyn manson... with his crazy contacts

as far as the blinker goes... just get some high powered front firing LED's.

I freakin love these. I wish I could ship you mine and let you do them.

too bad he wont be able to see anything at night with those lights because there is nothing for the lights to reflect off. Painting the complete headlight can only be done with 06-08 headlights

he didnt paint the whole thing.. re read it.. he left the important reflector alone..
the way he painted it it will kill turn signal which isnt that important as the bulb still flashes and probably killed high beam... which mine suck any way.

i will probably be going this soon minus white.

Now that i see them (esp. front view) on THAT car it looks excellent! I don't see doing it on my silver Z as it would be pointless...

At first I thought these were going to look ridiculous. Then I saw them on the car. Hm, I'm impressed.

Still, probably a loss of light output sucks though.

Awesome job! I think the white accents really go well with the car. Though I do wonder how they would've looked if you left the turn signal reflectors and the high beams chrome??? For a non daily driven car this would be ok but would be really inconvenient if you drove at night a lot or through bad weather.
