Default DIY Headlight mods

Hi folks im sorry for the delay of the pics as i'm a bit busy lately..

anyway, here's the DIY as i promised!

first off, i removed the strut bar and engine covers, continued with front bumper and headlights









next, here comes the HARDEST part. You guessed it right, opening the HEADLIGHT!! i used both Simota's and Digitonium's DIY and these took me about 1 and a half days to open!!

I didnt take pictures when i pried the headlights as im too busy opening them and my hand's all messed up with all those greases from the bolts and nuts

after 1 1/2 days, i've successfully removed them!! thank god i didnt screwed up!



taking off the boomerang amber reflector



at first, i'm thinking of only blacking it out but then the ideas come to me and i tried all of them and come out with these! i look at Alex's and Igor's work for my inspiration thanks to both of you guys

blacking out the housing :



as of the shrouds, i sent them to the painting shop as i wanted to match my exterior and usually pearl white comes with many variations of hue



testing the LEDs and Halo rings and yeah this is before i blacked out the housings





my own demon eye



and here's the outcome once i get them installed, look gazillion times better than stock!!









both sides installed :



testing the halo rings on car :





the final outcome!! here's an eye candy for all of you



white chick

I baught 20x11 and 20x9 projekt k3 wheels for my 2011 370z and they need some kind of spacers because they do not fit due to the brake pads in the way. Im guessing you must of ran into this same issue? I feel like the rims are going to stick out past my fenders if i do use spacers.


this is killing me.

I'm terribly sorry for the late reply cause i'm a bit busy this week. Well, back to your question, i changed to H&R from Swift is because i want a lower ride height and a softer spring rate since our roads here are pretty harsh. Hope that helps
