Fit of RAGE with Audi R8 Style Headlights!

Hey everyone, here's the latest mod i've got. Audi R8 style headlights!!! It's not 100% done, but i fugured that i'd post pics of the setup.











And here's a REALLY crapy pic:

I'm tryign to think of a way to make it reach to the "nose" of the headlight instead of just 3/4's of it.

I'm waiting for the silicone to cure so that i can finish with the setup. I"ll post pics of them installed ASAP for you guys. I"ll have these doen the the Vancouver DTP show so the wait wont' be that long. (hopefully)


PS: i'll be using them with my DRL's and with my white J's Racing S-Tai lights





NEW PICS

Looking good!

BTW, since you'll be using those as DRLs, you don't really need the J's lights anymore, right??

I think projector lenses will work better with your R8 Leds.

Damn Fit Of Rage thats hot. You are the LED king. I figured you would do them eventually since we talked about them in the past.

Anything new happen with your puddle light GB? Let me know. Also let me know if you are going to do anouther strip GB cause i have a couple more ideas myself. I also need a couple more for my EB. I havent finished it yet but so far i can already see that its not gonna be bright enough. My door sills are done now aswell and turned out great. I found i had a bad connector on the rear driver side. Thanks for the help with everything thus far and keep up the good work.

Here is the latest for the puddle lights: LED teaser pics!!!!

No GB yet. Not enough interest


However, if ppl are interested in more LED strips and/or puddle lights, we can make a GB for LED Products from MicraLED/DoseAudio. It will happen after May 31st tho. The rep is in China right now purchasing/testing replacement bulbs for our cars. (Turn signals WITH resistors inside, marker lights, licence plate light bulbs and things like that) I"ll keep you guys updated!

What do you mean "it never happened"?????

The lights aren't installed yet. They're sitting in my room while the silicone cures. I figured that with night pics, it woudl look better installed on the car.
