Looking for headlight modder in South Florida
Hey all,
I am looking for a good place in South Florida that can mod our headlights, and if anyone has any pictures of the work done I would love to see them. Thanks, J |
Really none?? :(
|
There is a DIY if you feel inclined to do it yourself. If you dont feel like doing it yourself you can ship your headlights off to 180custom or even to me at UAM and we can do it for you.
A descent shop who takes your headlights apart and reseals them along with painting your inner components will run about $400-$600 depending on what you want done. Mike :tup: |
Never heard of anyone here doing them for customers. You may find a single person who may want to do it for extra cash though.
|
Try PMing him. but surely you have to ship it though

What kind of mods are you thinking about?
|
haha i know i my skill level I wont be doing DIY lol. I want to get the housing painted to match my car color MB, and also demon eyes.
|
It really isn't that difficult. You can save yourself a lot of money (and use that to buy some tools for later projects) by following a DIY.
You can order a couple of cans of paint with the correct color code to paint the housing. You can also order the demon eye and the clear STI lens (which I suggest). I'm in PSL and can give you a hand if you'd like, or if you want, shoot me a PM with any questions you have. |
Lakewood park vero here
Dont know if either of you check this post maybe I should pm you. Just got a 2012 black cherry 370z and am wanting to do the same thing to my lights. Have you had any luck let me know
|
I have 2 friends who can paint your headlights for you 1 in west palm beach and another one in miami, let me know whic one you want lol, not sure about demon eye though
|
Yeah, the demon eye is a little more intensive. The halo is much more doable and more classy, imo.
|
I've been thinking about it, I might just do halo instead. Def want the paint done.
|
Demon eye is a very simple mod

Should def meet up to BS and see what you guys have done and get ideas of what to do. Anyone go with Redline fluids at all? Everyone has there own opinion on what to use and when to do the first change out... Ive never babied a car before so this is all new to me.
|
Well got my UpRev done 291hp on the mustang dyno an 320hp in the Jet Dyno!!! Getting much better response and feel. Also, getting much better gas mileage. Def have to arrange a time for us all to meet up.

I seen a blue one (looked nice) off okechobee today mine is black cherry... Was that you? I'm up for a meet and greet. Interested in seeing what others have done to their Z's.

You guys should drive down for the Sfzcc annual picnic, there's a thread in the south east section :)
|
On the issue of headlights, I had mine done in Tampa by a stereo/custom shop called Soundwaves. Take a look at my pics to see the results. Just ask for Peter and tell him I sent you!

hey all...
Largo here.. been looking for tampa area club, etc.. saw Suncoast Z club..but seems dead.. I too am looking for headlight mods, etc.. soo surprising Nissan doesn't really offer any additional DRL, or fog lights..etc.. nada.. |
I just want mine painted lol.
But I'm not about to pay the stupid amount of money some of these places charge for something that should be so simple to someone who has done it before. |
Well I'll say I've seen the process that is involved, not to mention the seal integrity is tough to up do/do with out a large often. You can always just try it yourself, you might gain an appreciation for the process.
|
^ I dunno, I've done it 4 times- it's definitely involved but I wouldn't say it's tough to do. Getting the reseal right is very important, but as long as you have a heat gun and some black rtv sealant (that you apply VERY liberally) it usually comes out fine.
|
well lets see if we can get a time together to work on my lights and see if we can knock them out!
|
Not to get off topic. I'm in pal also. Willing to ride out if you guys plan on having a meet..
|
Psl*
