Modified my Coupe Lights!

Just got it back today, had a local guy who does great retrofitting paint everything satin black inside, than morimoto v2 led halo behind the oem shroud to give it an iron man style look, switchback so it's wired into the turn signal to blink amber when turning also got morimoto led strip mounted in fog area, both the strip and halo are wired to be DRL,updgraded to Morimoto 5500k ds2 xb35 bulbs and the city light is Diode Dynamic 6000k LED bulb I already had. All matches up color wise very well and the light output at night is so much better vs the OEM bulb IMO.




turned off.... sorry car has a few spots on the bumper because it's dirty, washing her later this weekend LOL

That looks great. How long did it take him to get all that done? and how much did you pay if you don't mind sharing?

Took him about 4-5 days. He worked it in with another car he was doing . total cost for everything was $550 which is a steal IMO, he took the headlights out, baked them open, painted everything satin black, all the shrouds, the amber sidemarker, just kept the high beam pocket chrome, wired it for DRL and switchback so the halo blinks amber with the turn signal, refinished my foggy lenses, and installed them back in. Plus he wired the led strip in the fog area in the bumper for free and used a relay harness so all 4 are DRL (pictured is the city light on, but that is because I turned parking light feature on for the picture) SUCH a HUGE difference in front end appearance and upgrade, best mod by FAR so far.
