::UPDATE:: GT Style Projectors w/ Angel Eyes (release date)

Just a quick update on where I am at with the development of the Ultimate High Performance Bi-Xenon Projector for Porsche 9X6. With Angel Eyes of course

The COB LED boards are finally in and I am now preparing a bigger aluminum mold that I will be using to make the acrylic filters. The artificial LED glare is gone for info.... that was achieved by simply using a white filler mixed with the acrylic. Makes the filter cloudy and therefore acts as a perfect light diffuser. Great success with that.

Below are some visuals of the real deal. Green ranks high on my list of favorite color to design with so no questions as why green was the color used to develop the prototype! It happens that the other color are far more interesting (yellow, blue, red, white). The red being simply the sickest, and the white being the smartest/cleanest of all imo.

The final product will be ready on Dec 20th and ready to ship out on Dec 23rd. As usual I am accepting custom-work requests on those so contact me if you are interested in a kit.







^ This one above has a thick (2.5mm) acrylic diffuser installed. It doesn't glow much but emits strong enough to see the light tunneling out of the 32x slots around the bezel. 10x times more sexier than the BMW's angel eyes, unique design as well

I applied the Lamin-X film today and installed the lights. Everything works perfectly. The spots on the lenses are water under the film, it needs a few days to set.

I'm still thinking about wiring the LED parking lights to an ignition source so they would work as angel eyes/driving lights.

Can you post up a picture of the entire car. I have the same color car and am debating on painting the headlights black or leaving it chrome.

I left the reflector chrome, and painted the trip using VHT Satin Black. Color is Arctic Silver.

I can't get a good picture of the lights. Sorry.

I wonder what single pulsating red LED would do inside the projector with the HID off. Perhaps a security light like on the dash?
