thanks guys! they are now done just got to put them in

skaterking411 · Post by **skaterking411** » Tue Dec 28, 2010 4:27 am

polished the motor mount and powder coated the other top part of it and the bolts

the retros are now done. i have the passenger side in but not the driver side due to rust being fixed on the core support behind the headlight.

How did you do the demon eyes this time?

skaterking411 · Post by **skaterking411** » Sun Jan 16, 2011 2:53 pm

i wired 6 uv leds in parallel wired up to a switch inside. i used 6 because the uv leds arent very bright and i wired them in parallel so if one goes bad they dont all turn off. i just epoxied them with the led pointing towards the cutoff and the reflective cup until i found it was brighest and left it like that.

ohh ok, did you get the headlights off of ebay?

skaterking411 · Post by **skaterking411** » Sun Jan 16, 2011 3:06 pm

yea the depo all clear headlights. and i got the projectors from theretrofitsource.com

I'd LOVE to see this car with a yellow '02 dodge grille. I think it'd really pull the front together. Maybe throw a purple 1gn badge on it. The homemade metal grille just doesn't do it for me. The retros look awesome though. Great job.

skaterking411 · Post by **skaterking411** » Sun Jan 16, 2011 3:16 pm

if i could find a yellow one for really cheap id put it on to see haha. but thanks

sidepipe87 · Post by **sidepipe87** » Sun Jan 16, 2011 3:32 pm

just buy one cheap and paint it next time you need to paint something. Didn't you or your dad paint your bumper and lip for you? I think they're like $15 new from RockAuto

skaterking411 · Post by **skaterking411** » Sun Jan 16, 2011 3:44 pm

ill probably do that. probably wont be painting for a while. we used all the paint on that stuff because we had to paint it twice. but i will try to get some more because i want to color match the folding part of the mirror and make some eyelides to paint

sidepipe87 · Post by **sidepipe87** » Sun Jan 16, 2011 6:13 pm

painted mirrors, eyelids, and a yellow dodge grille are now musts... they will really tie the car together well.

skaterking411 · Post by **skaterking411** » Sun Jan 16, 2011 6:22 pm

i know . i want to get it done before winter is over. college is really money sucking me

sidepipe87 · Post by **sidepipe87** » Sun Jan 16, 2011 7:26 pm

lol you don't have to tell me. I know all about it. I was there with $5 or less regularly in my bank account. So glad to finally be out of school.

dtjackten · Post by **dtjackten** » Sun Jan 16, 2011 7:42 pm

retros look great! i like the demon eye also... nice touch....

skaterking411 · Post by **skaterking411** » Sun Jan 16, 2011 7:52 pm
