Damn man, I think those look fantastic!!! The eyelids look a lot like mine. :D I see you got them finally. They also helped enhance the "evil" look of they angel eyes...evil and angel...hmmm

Great job! Gonna have to figure out a way to do this. I may only do the main headlight and leave off the high beam, though.

It looks great....

But, it also looks a little weird on the inside (toward the center) lights, since they don't have a real circular shape to begin with.

Still nice, very nice.

Let me just say, I think it looks great, but...

It looks to me like the one halo is not centred, it seems to be hitting the housing for the other lightm, maybe it is the angles? If not maybe a smaller halo for that bulb is in order?

Looks great though, I am just nitpicking!

*Edit* Are those actually Daylight Demon Eyes (DDE) product??

The highbeam ring is actually mounted on thing, clear plastic ring to reinforce the angel eye beam.

BTW -- w/ a single ring, it looked bad, you need two and you really need to make sure inner beam is mounted in front of the other ring, if not, the rings looked like uneven bubbles and looks horrible.

The process of testing and measuring broke 4 rings ... so believe me when I say that I thought of doing a single ring to make it easier but it didn't look good.

I think when we took the photo, we weren't in the center, we were slightly raised above the headlight and we weren't using a tripod ..so it skewed the photo. We made sure the ring was as centered as it can be considering there wasn't much to go with on that highbeam "floating" ring. But, good eye nonetheless :D

I take no credit, except wanting the DDE and paying for them. The true credit goes to Rick at Euroboutique.

Here's the website: http://www.euroboutique.us

Rick is the owner and he's good w/ this kind of stuff.

btw -- there's a swtich inside the car so you can turn on/off the DDE. Its good for car shows and meets. My car was off during the photos .

I think the hardest part was getting the headlight apart and attaching the inner floating ring to the clear mount. The outer ring was pretty much a basic install using glue (carefully placed around the fixture).

1 DDE ring on each light looks wierd, you really need 2 to make that DDEs. Talk Rick about the details. I just know what he did to install it but Rick know the gross details about the entire process.

Alex, I hope you bring that to the next meet :D

That looks awesome! I've pictured it with one ring on each case, and I think it looks half-baked. It looks good with 2 rings though! I cant wait to see it in person.
