update:

The carbon crotchcooler flaps have been worked over, test fitted, and are ready for inner paint. Hmmm......black or try and match the body paint?

Headlights are FINALLY ready for install. I've nicknamed them....The Million Dollar Headlights. I've spend an unbelievable amount of hours to build/fab them.
-OEM FX45 projectors are now modded with clear lenses. Really nice cutoff and colour!
-Ditched the generic clear Oval lenses, and sourced early Split clear Hella glass. Had a local Crystal grinding shop grind a pair of notches in each lens. Notches are to clear the trim's adjusting screws like the later glass, so it can all be assembled.
-Wiring for ballast/highbeam solenoid/grounds done.
*needs to be installed in the fender.

Plastic fender beading will be replaced with repopped Split fender cloth welting. Then the headlights get mounted.

Hopefully tommorrow or Friday, i can get my hands on a completed part i've been thinking of for awhile. I won't spill the beans just yet........I'll get pics up.......

later,
Pete
