Blacked out gts86 (jdm) headlights with angel eyes

[86ing]

Hey guys, so i'd like to say thanks to @Gixxersixxerman and @phanguy for helping me out with this install, the questions i asked them would probably of annoyed them after a while since i was asking so much haha; also id like to thank @Darrendrive for the awesome DIY on blacking out headlights. Well yeah, i finally blacked out and installed angels eyes onto my headlights. I kind of regret blacking out the drl reflectors since you cant see them in the morning that much anymore but once it gets dark, omg haha it looks heaps amazing with the halos, it also has a nice affect i guess since the drls slowly looks brighter when the sun goes down ^_^.
This install wasn't as hard as i thought id be, for someone who didnt know how to work a built in-oven (friken derp haha) and not know what they were doing, everything turned out smoothly so if anyone wants to do this install, id tell them to go for it since it's pretty easy .
I bought the wrong size angel eyes (90mm) but the shroud for the jdm headlights were about 110mm or so (didnt check) but it was really big, so i had to mount the halos inside the shroud, like half way... hopefully the wires wont get loose and everything will be alright. After a while, im probably going to buy new headlights and re-do everything, (buy the correct angel eye size, paint it in satin black instead of flat black and leave the drls chrome to see how that turns out) also, my headlights have lots of drill holes in it cause i messed up...

Well here are the pictures! I'll add some pictures at night, couldnt get some yesterday since i came back home at 1am but i sat there staring at the car lights for 30 minutes haha.






Ive also realised the car seems a bit hotter than usual for some weird reason after i installed these :S

also, after finishing this mod yesterday, i got my first ticket... for not having my p's on. I saw the cop circling the area where i parked my car but i thought nothing of it. Once i finished everything, got back into the car and drove normally, saw the cop waiting around the corner.. he started following me after and yeah. 236 dollar fine for no ps. like gad damn, my friend only got a 90 dollar fine for his.. gawd haha.

Looks great.. I was telling a guy that wanted me to black his lights out how easy it is.. I didn't wanna turn down business, but the cost of shipping was almost the same as the labor.. I told him if he can take the lights off the car, then he can bake the lights apart.. I didn't know the gt86 headlights where different as far as halos go, ours is 90mm.. I have 100mm on mine.. So it fits right around the ring.. I'd love a shot with the DRL on and up close.. I don't care for the gt86 lights, the JDM ones, but wanted to see a set blacked out

Woah that must of been heaps if he sent them :O. hmm the halo sizes for the jdm ones might actually be 100mm haha, ill check if i ever open the headlights again haha. haha i must admit, blacking it out and putting halos on it, definitely makes the car look heaps better, well in my eyes anyways haha. I'll go take some close up pictures now

@Gixxersixxerman here is a close up picture with the drls on! ill take some more at night when you can see them properly

[Gixxersixxerman]

I see how they work now.. Shining down on the reflector.. What sucks is when you clean the paint off, it's easy to take the "chrome" off also... I found out doing a BRZ lol

If anything I might've went with the "black chrome" paint.. Made it darker but still reflect a little

[phanguy]

that really turned out well! good job man!

[Enraged21]

The DRLs barely look like they are on

Really? i never knew that, i guess you have to get it right first go or else itll be harder the second time around :\.

Would that paint of made a difference?
