Custom headlights

Anyone have custom headlights? Blackout with LED rings?

If so, post a pic and whether diy or professional job Haven't seen many of us Aussies with this done so very curious.

Here's a direct sunlight photo for your sexual..... I mean viewing pleasure. Lol

It involves heating your headlights up to pull them apart. I wouldn't recommend doing this yourself at all unless you know what you're doing. Difficultly level is about a 10.

You can hit up Stu from BMR for a quote.

I had no clue Stu could do custom headlights, awesome! Thanks for the photo.. is it really that much brighter and noticeable in real life then just a LUX angel eye upgrade or something to that effect?

Thanks!

You gotta be so careful opening up headlights. Forget about having to re-seal it properly, if you oven bake it to soften up the glue you risk fucking the whole thing, if you use hairdryer and pry it open you damage the casing.

Brightness difference is like LCI headlights compared to pre LCI.

That's a fair amount of difference, and looks are 100x better with a blackout

The carbon fibre is definitely something different. I'll see what I can get done. Thanks!
