RX-8 Projector Lens Swap
 

I replaced the glass projector lens in the head lights to produce a much more intense output.

New lens on the right, stock lens on the left.

Modified cut-off shield. I also removed some of the foreground limiter to give more light closer to the car and off to the sides.

Notice the blue color above the cut off line. This makes the car appear to have 8000k hids to oncoming traffic.

It looks like I have a crazy blue HID kit.

That looks amazing! Good job.

wow that's freakin sick rodger!

loving it./......how hard is this to do? on scale of 1-10

very easy. the whole project only took a few hours.

im actually going to redo the passenger light tonight because I think I can sharpen the cut off a little more.
Id say its a level 4 project. the bumper has to be removed to get the head light off.

I drove Rodger's car on Saturday to test these badboys out and the difference was QUITE noticable! (aka Jedi was jealous)

Awesome job Rodger!

roger right can I ask little help from a 8 owner how to I lnstall hid on my car.....by rhs way its jay red 8 a/ decals on the side if you remembr...

The front lights look sweet. However I'm more interested in the rear LED's. can you provide some info on those?

PS. I like the random shot glass in the pictures.
