Default Rough set done on Carbon Fiber dual-projector headlights.

Usual disclaimers that ths project is not done, and all of the imperfections you can see are known and will be gone as more resin layers are applied and sanded.



Turn signal trim:



This trim is complete and is matte finished. The rest are all still gloss because I haven't sanded level yet. You can really tell the difference when holding the matte trim next to the stuff that's still gloss.



Here is one for the DIY, lol. Second headlight housing just after overlay applied.



Here is one just to see how lens trims look in rough pre-sand stages. They aren't clicked in place as I have to trim CF on the main housing first.
Still a little tack to them so I'll leave them for the day and start in to first sand-downs tomorrow.



And another without second projector mounted in place:



Turning out good so far for an overlay, especially. Not too much sanding needs done.


Should have both done by end of week. Then I need to do test-runs on the LED's to make sure I don't have heat issues. Then I hope to have functioning auto-dimming S5-look LED's in addition to the dual projector housing.
