Alright, haven't updated this site in a while. I got some work done on one of the brackets, took me over an hour for just the one! Still have to do the other, but it'll have to wait a couple weeks till finals are over at school.

First some output shots of the TL's w/ ZKW-R clear lens.

Update:

I did some work the other day on the Mini H1 projectors. I sanded the step cutoff so that it is now a slope. Then I painted and baked everything with VHT flat black ceramic header paint.

After taking some output shots of these little guys, I think I'm gonna dedicate these to only low beams. I hear too many complaints about how the shields don't always go back to a full upright position, and I don't want to lose the awesome color band!

Here ya go...
