Newest Arc Reactor! (pics included)

I have to give credit where credit is due... Danny (UCLA Bruin) did an amazing job on these headlights!! I was dying to get the Ironman or the Arc Reactor, but up until now they both used the side-marker socket to power the projector shroud LEDs. Living in a small town in Ohio where the cops have absolutely nothing to do all day except make their quotas, I'm not willing to sacrifice legality in the name of coolness. So I wasn't willing to lose my amber side-marker lights at night.

Both Igor and UCLA offered to do a custom mod for me involving the side-marker, but UCLA made the offer first. We discussed what I wanted, and he said he'd do his best to accommodate me. He went above and beyond my requests!!!

I apologize for the horrible picture quality; all I have is a point-&-shoot and it's really hard to get pictures of lights. I'll try to get some better ones tomorrow, but basketball is on and I'm done for the night.

******* EDIT (new pictures) ********

I love it! This is why I go to sleep at 2am when I have work for 9 hrs the next day.

I really appreciated your patience, hope the wait was worth it.

Now, some pics around dusk from the front of the car would just be too cool.

Joe, you're not the only one with tricks up your sleeve!!

I went with pure white around the projector, and either amber or white LEDs (you'll have to ask Danny) under the amber plastic. I want the casual observer to think all of my mods are OEM. I try to keep everything as clean and classy as possible, so even the guys at the dealership start scratching their heads thinking, "Did Infiniti make that as a limited edition, or is that aftermarket?"
