Default Finally finished my Projector project(pics)

I finally finished my projectors on my 5th Gen. Prelude. It wasn't too hard, but it was time consuming. I'm not completely finished, cause I still need to paint the inside, but I'll do that later...Here are the pics. Let me know what you guys think

that's pretty cool, Ive been looking for some upgrades for the headlights but cannot find nothin' You made these yourself? could you post a closer pic of the projector in the headlight? Have you tested them? And if so, how are they for visibility?

Yeah, I had to do it myself, cause no company makes them for a 5th Gen. I'll get some closer pics of them later on, cause I'm at school now. I tested them out last night, and the visibilty is real good.

It took me 3 days to do all the work. I used S2K projector lenses, but the holder I used are from an 04 Maxima...The projectors lenses from the Maxima are about 4 inches big and the S2K lenses are about 3, so I had to use a little reducer brace in order for it to fit right. Everything is pretty much custom. I'm not completely done with it though. I'll get some night pics up probably later on tonight.
