Custom Tekarbon Angel Eyes Project : Demon Eyes
Most of you know that I've been planning on upgrading my headlights with the Tekarbon mod.
I finally got around to shipping my lights but I wanted something unique and eye-popping yet nothing to crazy. After me and Eric tossed back and forth some ideas I landed upon adding some Imola Red flare to my lights to match my car's paint. Eric sent me these pictures today, I think they turned out awesome, they look like I now have Demon Eyes and I think it'll be pretty sweet when a driver ahead of me see's these scary eyes coming up behind him when my lights are turned off. I'm getting 6000k bulbs in by Eric as well which have yet to arrive but when they do he'll send me pictures of them lit up. I probably wont get around to putting them on my car in a while but i'll update this thread when i do, It may look like one of the tabs on the right headlight is broken but Eric has assured me it is not and that the tab will be back to normal before shipment. Pics: Let me know what you guys think!

Glad you got around to doing this I've been thinking about it for a while as well but I was waiting for someone with IR to do them in black first.
I've considered doing the housings fully red... that might be too much though. Can't wait to see them installed ! |

so when you go tekrabon, if you clear out the strip, do they not light up amber when you use your turn signal?

understood, but i believe tekarbon offers the option so that the strip doesn't light up at all. but then i wonder how your blinkers work.
recently i tried to code my car to euro settings such that the strip ONLY lights up as signals but not for the drl's, was wondering how tekarbon would get around this issue. |
