Black Mamba :: 2007 Infiniti FX35

Oh wow, didn't see your new pics. Very cool! I love the very first one, awesome background. Nice avatar too.
 
Thanks, I do ok for a guy with a car and an iPhone. The avatar is all Soonster.
 
Which iPhone do you have? I have a 4, and love the camera. I have a nicer camera too, but never use it unless I devote a day to going out and shooting because it's a hassle to carry around.
 
I've got the 4S. For a phone it does a pretty good job. I would never carry a camera around otherwise.
 
It was gorgeous last weekend to take those photos, now it's cold and 7 inches of wet snow everywhere. More to come once winter calls it quits.
 
Big weekend for the FX. Made my way down to Handy Andy's yesterday to update basically all of my exterior lighting.

A pair of stock headlights I picked up a couple months ago.

Andy tore the lights apart in preparation for painting.

I requested the difficult task of blacking out a majority of the headlight while keeping the chrome rings in tact. Since the chrome is very thin, this has given people a lot of trouble over the years.

After painting, the lights looked awesome.

Ordered a set of TSX-R clear projector lens from TRS.

Added the Angel Eyes and the DTRL / Signal swap as well and then put the finished product in place.

Since the bumper was already off, it was a good time to swap out the stock fogs with some DDM ballast with 6k Morimoto bulbs.

Everything back together and my plan to steal all of Andy's good ideas is in full effect.

The new look...

Still need to replace the DTRL bulbs with some white LED, but everything came together really well, thanks Andy.

The gloss black paint on the headlights turned out great! Have you driven at night yet? If so, don't those TSX-R lenses look amazing with the Mori 6K? I love the color flicker on them. One of the best mods to do! Nice job Justin! :top:
 
Wow Justin. The story board making of the headlights is a cool ideal. Gotta say Morimoto 6000K and TSX-R lens is an awesome combo. They look awesome :top:
 
Yep, as I was driving back to Milwaukee last night, it got darker and darker and the cutoff on those bulbs looked better and better. I love the look from the DTRL Signal swap as well.

All thanks to you... :)
 
Nice!! Did the same to mine and kept the chrome rings, glad your chrome did not peel off! Looks good!
 
Just a couple more close-ups of the finished lights.
