....:the official headlight mod thread:....

Post your best pictures of your modified headlights. Even if you just tinted the outside lens. We want to see all mods from everywhere in the world. This would also help anyone trying to make a decision on how to mod their lights!

I'll start with my headlights! (yes that's me with the airbrush)

HERE IS THE COMPLETE WRITE UP> https://www.myg37.com/forums/body-in...using-mod.html

What paint did you use for the shroud? Was it color matched?

Used Dupli-color spray - Gun Metal was the name on the can... The color matches PG very well and I can't notice a difference.

Thanks. I'll have to pick up a can next time I paint something. Might use it for the emblem on the grille.

^The eye brows are an add on that goes on the outside of the headlight lens. It's held on my 3M tape. They were popular on the G35, however the only G37s that I know who have them is myself and Xlack. I bought them off a buddy of mine (CeelosG37S), however these are the only set that company made. Maybe try and PM Xlack if he knows where to get them, cause unfortunately i don't. Xlack color matched his OB to blend in with his car.

Where are the pics jhonnyboy? Is 180custom still doing light mods? Haven't heard much about him since he was banned here. Raul can set you up with newer ones if you want to update your look. Post the pics!
