    Good work. If it wasn't for the big white ring, that would be one super blacked out headlight! Did you paint the RX shields for a darker passive look?

    How do you keep your turn signal if you blacked out the projector? LED DRL?

    The halos and the DRL are now the blinkers, and believe it or not even if you black out the blinker they can still be seen

    Some comparison pics and beam shots would be cool to see how much is affected by blacking out the reflector bucket..
