All takes time.... no no cheap cast stuff at this end

Literally everything is precision machined. Even the mounting screws... stylish little kit lolll

Those screws are batch CNC'ed and then snap-out from their aluminum billet just like those kid's plastic model parts. They are then faced (cleaned up) and threaded with a M24*1mm. Not exactly the cheapest bolts you can find

Fancy shots... gives an idea of what's involved lol (i.e. crazy)

These are gorgeous pics Nine8Six.

I'm also getting ready to pull the trigger, I'm just not sure what to choose between the 3 designs...

Yes, beautiful work Fred, I love the pictures

I was out driving last night thinking about how well the headlights work, excellent upgrade for those on the fence.

No worries, Fred! I have plenty of projects in the pipeline to occupy myself, including Particlewave's de-ambering of the headlights...nesting, I guess?
