I'm thinking of sending mine in soon. Doing exactly the same as Spohn only with PG. I was curious to see if anyone did the housing in PG but I think that might not look as good as matte. My Z is sitting in the garage begging for mods :) I figure now is the best time to do this along with intake.

How long did they say it would be? Same turnaround as usual?

SPOHN 01-28-2011 09:37 PM

I always wanted to see pics of the housing be painted PG. But here are some pics of what your talking about doing. It's what I did also. As you already stated.

Just scroll down.

Ahhh thanks, I never saw this guys car. DannyGT's look sick.

I am pretty sure that's the route I'm gonna go but I'm still curious to see color matched housing along with color matched shrouds. White housing/shrouds looks awesome but I think the PG housing wouldn't pop as much as the white does. Sort of reminds me of a throwback look of the 240/260/280 with headlight covers.

Make sure you post some pictures when you get yours back

I sent mine off yesterday...I went with gloss black housings then red protector shrouds and gloss black reflector strip...do any of your guys have pics of how your headlights turned out? I can't wait to get mine back!!!

kellyefields 02-08-2011 03:00 PM

you can see a pic of mine in my album. I did the gloss black housing and reflective strip and left the shrouds in the silver. If you are looking for a set done in red check out simota's profile.

Chrono_30 02-08-2011 03:17 PM

Those looks sweet bro! I love the body kit btw!!

kellyefields 02-08-2011 04:01 PM

I like it. I dont have the best pics yet because it rained the day I finished it up so once I get a good wax I will take a photo shoot outside. Thanks

JB-370z 02-08-2011 06:23 PM

I while back a had a new set of SSR SP3's painted that same paint code.

SPOHN 02-08-2011 07:09 PM

I just got mine back yesterday. Love them. Love them. Won't have pics up till this weekend. Not at home. Had the housing matte black with the shrouds painted GM, along with the amber colored reflector painted GM. I might be the first doing GM. Thing is it's really hard to take good pics of the lights. Keep getting a glare. But I'll get some good ones up.

Nice!! I am so pumped to get mine back, I know I just sent them but this will really set this car off!!! Seems like must do mod for our cars.....

JJ-NISMO 02-13-2011 04:54 PM

What is the turn around time on these?

SPOHN 02-13-2011 05:36 PM

Mostly 2-3 days witout shipping. In my case about two weeks with ground shipping. Took a total of 4 days of shipping plus the 3 day turn around. But they had two bad days of snow and there paint guy couldn't get to work.

JJ-NISMO 02-14-2011 11:25 AM

Thanks SPOHN, I am hoping to get my lights done shortly!

I may need to find a way to do a core swap so that I can keep the car functional.

Waiting to hear back from 180 on pricing at this point.

Those are probably mine. I wish I could of capture this. I can't remember if it was you or not. But someone said mine looked silver. But I just couldn't capture the right lighting. Especially with the lens on the headlight and my basic camera. I'm hoping to get a good bit of pics this weekend.

NewYorkJon34 02-18-2011 11:00 PM

I am suppost to be getting the Carbon headlights, but am unsure if it will be too much. Ya it was me who asked, lol They look really good,but I'd just go with a darker gunmetal.

Yeah those are your headlights... I love that gun metallic color over the platinum graphite color so much more. Def one of the cleanest sets we've done.

We actually offer a specific gun metal color for the trim throughout the entire car. I used it on my black 2010 G37 sedan, did the gun metal window trim, headlights, mirrors, emblems, etc. I love it because from far it looks black, but from up close you can clearly tell the difference, it's not light nor completely dark, just perfect... the sun brings out the best in the color. Here's what it looks like

Sorry guys, haven't touched a 40th yet, but for anyone looking to step up, let us know ! :)

That aside, are you guys ready for couple of new SICK mods? one of which we just came up with about an hour ago, and it's mind blowing, looks SICK ! I don't want to post the unfinished product, so give me a few days so we can paint our spare headlight to fully display this new mod.

What is it?..do tell :excited:

Jessobear 03-04-2011 09:19 AM

Do you offer a smoked headlight? What I mean is that instead of chrome, the headlights would appear black chrome after painting?

Dsphoto 04-25-2011 06:18 AM

180˚ is awesome!
 
Just got my lights done. Excellent communication, delivery of an outstanding product on time as promised. Was going to take some better photos this weekend but couldn't....I was out driving with the top down.

Matte black, shaved strip, BC shrouds, led ring.

I'd like to get this look if possible. More of a dark chrome than a painted finish housing & brushed metal shrouds. Can it be done & how much?
