My Snot Rocket's headlight projector retrofit

[trsandrew]

Noticed something when I went to glue on the high beam shrouds, there's some wear on them from handling (and factory chrome on these plastics sucks in general):

As such, I'll likely paint the shrouds metallic graphite

I think graphite will look much better actually! Given the quality of work your putting into these, I think chromed plastic would be too stock-ish. In for results!

This is sick!! Love the ST logo in the projector lens.
I wish new fiesta headlights weren't so expensive. :'(

I wish someone like Depo or TYC made replica housings and used a sealant that can be baked open too. Jeez.

Projectors mounted, low beam shrouds trimmed and in paint now. All that's left is to cut open the stock set and swap guts.

Shrouds trimmed and on:

Wow those are really really nice. I almost wish I went retro fit instead of OEM euro lights.

Turn signals now have Murano turn signal covers. Perfect match for the shrouds too!

Getting closer, I see!

Had some extra time last night after work, so I got to work on the lights.

Point of no return, cutting open the stockers:

Checking wiring. All good finally:

Sealed back up around 11PM last night:

I will need to open them again to fix rotation--I was running out of energy last night to do it.

Looks amazing!

The final outcome. Went with chrome shrouds on the outer projectors:

Those are sweet looking. I can't wait for my set of stock ones to arrive so I can start my retrofit
