Hey guys I was doing a project that I attempt and I blacked out my eye brow since I'm not into chrome. I was going to do 3 watt led also but it burnt out which failed lolz so I'm just going to put led strip instead because I'm pretty lazy right now. heres some picture my next project is to do orion ring and clear that orange side signals and black out the inside housing either black or I just paint the chrome and side marker with the shade spray.
-dont mind my dogs pink bed lolz used it as a stand for my headlight
will post picture when I'm done with the led looks sweet on the car blacked out.

Whoa, you literally cut out the entire brow part! Dang, not sure if I can be as adventurous as that 
And yes, please get rid of that reflector! Can't stand the way it ruins the headlight's look, lol.

Haha yeah you can man you do the service, I just grew more balls and cut away again like what I did to the eye brows. After doing the eye brow I wasn't afraid to start tearing shit up tho lolz. I'm trying to find a different SMD led for my eye brows though any good suggestion nomis PM me I don't like the strip I got its not even have to add some epoxy or glue to make the strip stay errr.

well I made my own circuit board and the resistors melted but the led still worked. So I bought some 3 watt led but it got messed up, so I'm still deciding if I should just get another 1watt or 3 watt led and redo them or just get a strip but I don't know which strip I should get that fits perfectly on the spot without modding it. I'll have pictures up lit up hopefully

Just updating that I installed the SMD and it wasn't bright so I'm going back to superflux led, I will post picture up of the SMD tonight.
