Kidcanes CF Housing by IvoryGT

I finally finished up the Iron-Man v2.0 for Kidcanes headlights, along with installing IvoryGT's cf housing into his headlights. Pretty good quality housing, but its like 3 times heavier than the stock, plus the fit was pretty tight into the lenses, leaving me to believe they're under a bit of pressure, but they look good non the less. Required a little bit of modification to fit the clear turning signal lens.

IvoryGT, would it be possible to make these out of dry CF? just pure cf, not using the stock housing.

Here are some pics.















Oh, and a few pics of the finished Iron-Man v2.0, brighter than the 4-LED 194 bulb in the foglight housing. The IM is a 5000K white, doesn't have that blue tint like 6000K does.

Great work Igor. Question though...seems like you've replaced those yellow tingy lights between the headlights and replaced it with some sort of bright cool blue. It def looks better. But are there any downsides with getting rid of the yellow ting....like visibility, etc?

WOW! Looks great Ig0r. Do you have LEDs for the IM that would match 6000K? Or just the 5000K?
