Con: They're green/yellow when turned off... Most people don't like seeing the individual LEDs so they go for CCFL.

Yeah that's the ones, might look okay if you had a white car, with green wheels, maybe...

You can get amber ones that are white when off, but you need the phosphorus (green) coating to make the light white.

Been pretty busy for the past few weeks .... work ... family ... no time for hobby !

time for bit of update ..

first time seen a Zerosport eye lid ......... very interesting !

hopefully by end of next week i should complete a set of Gen 5 headlight ... something different !

Finally finished the Gen 5 headlights ....... twin ring with black insert .. look forward to see the photo on the car !

Another angel eye installed with 6000k HID with black insert and headlight been tinted black ... don't know what you think but i do quiet like the modified INGS front bar and love the red and black colour concept.

Something bit different ........ twin rings! one of those thing either you like it a lot of you hate it a lot ??

but i like it !

Another Gen 5 but with this one, all i did was painted the headlight inserts as the car already had some LED angel eyes done by another shop.

Anyway look forward to some other interesting projects to come.

Nice! I love the headlights on the red Gen4! The front bar and colour are certainly different!!

Lovely work as per usual. Just a quick one, if you don't mind me asking, with the twin rings is that another complete CCFL ring or an arc?

thats a arc, but you can use another full ring if you like.... all comes to personal choice.
