Nine8Six, my projectors have arrived and they are gorgeous, I couldn't be more happy with the color and finish....awesome!!!

Now I'll have to get started prototyping the "Dragon Eyes" into the projectors and do some pre-install testing to get the effect I'm looking for.

I'll document and make video as I get things working.

Thanks again Fred for making an awesome product.

Was a pleasure doing those for you and your Boxster Ray. Glad to hear you like them.

Below is a picture of your kit before it left. Souvenir

Looking forward your pics and further development mate

Thanks again Ray

Below are similar to Ray's above but with black skirts. For those who wish to paint the interior of their headlight black.

Finish is polished & anodized gunmetal. The bezel's laser script is custom "as per customer's requirement".

This is now the official "Standard" kit i.e. replacing the flash silver painted bezel.

Shoot me a PM if you are interested in retrofitting your Porsche Boxster (or 996) headlight from halogen to high performance bi-xenon projectors.
