Looking the goods. How did you form the angel eyes? Do you have a template you formed it around? You could make some easy money if you make some more I reckon.

I like the angel eyes because I have them on my Aurion.

Very nice work. I was wondering how "frosting" spray (like glass etching) would go on the back edge of the perspex? im thinking you would get even more output.. or even a light sandblast/ sanding (paper).

Hard to explain, but it kinda just acts like a diffuser... makes the light more even smooth looking but less intense and bright off the front of the ring.

Heya DemonRolla, The clear tubing is from Plastix bout 8bux a 3m lenght. LED's are Ultra Whites cost about 6-7bux each and the rest is wire aand heatshrink, oh and dont forget your resistors for the LED's.

I'll get a full list and prolly a better how to when it's all done , working and looking proper.

Wire diagram if this helps. Red and green out is to power source, i think ima ganna hook these up to my lower driving lights or parkers i think this will work best. If to parkers i will prolly DC origs.

You running 5mm LEDs i assume? did you use a dremel for the scoring? very neat work

Re frosting, i understand what you mean, do you not get enough forward thrown light with the frosting?

Posted

It's hard to explain, best to show you :) In hind site maybe cuts and sanding might have produced a better light.

Yep the LED's are 5mm Ultra bights.

I wanted to only use 6.5mm tubes but the sockets walls for the LEDS became too thin and cracked up. So ended up using thicker 8mm tube.

I still think the 6.5mm tubing looked better, more refined.

WOOT! i can't say how over the moon i am with the final look!

The blackened head lights is perfect on white it blends perfect with the lower bar lights. Mazda are really onto this and i'd love to sort somthing out for the rear. The round Sportivo 2008 model LEDS but with the later model clear glass!Blackend with the just the LED's doing thyr thing...... The lower mesh was carries the trd sport grill theme nicely. Upper 60K HID's and Lower 45K HIDS look cool too.
And finally Angel Eyes! what can i say, they turned out better then i thought they would. they Fit the contour of the lights perfect and the 3/4 effect always looks the Meanest!Big shout out to Davo for gettin the ball rollin with the grill! cheers mate smile.gif and DJKOR cheers mate your right, LED's are the way to go over CCF's biggrin.gif

I got a lotta pics tongue.gif Side one and blackend lights.

Seeing this and my bloody CCFL kit just arrived for the LS430 today... Im pretty sure ill be ditching the CCFL's and DIY LED rings like i was planning. At least the acrylic rings are all but invisible when off. Im really impressed with the output of these LED's.

Posted

wow that looks great! those leds are bright even with the hids on. i like the side shots of them too they look like oem bmw angel eyes.

Posted

Looking great! you have pulled off the angel eyes on the aurion very nicely.
