Yeah I put them in my oven on 250 for 5mins then pulled apart with a flat blade, and still had to use a heat gun for the parts that was stuck real good

So how do u glue them back together when done. Also what kind of paint did you use did u prime them or anything

I scuffed it all up with 400grit, then sprayed adhesion promoter couple coats then within 10mins of the last coat sprayed high temp matte white paint. Then heated up the sealant that was still in the crack with a heat gun. Then put a bead of sealant in the crack with it and push it back together. Thats how I did it anyone else can chime in if they do it any different.

Looks great they came out really nice. lets see some pics of the lights installed....

I've been wanting to do this to my headlights for a while just a lil different.

Wow huge difference

 

[edgaranah1]

looks good. Probably if u paint those projectors they will look good to.

 

[Baker1k]

Thanks, just need led bulbs and some hid's for them now.

Wow, those look really good, nice job. Now just hope they don't get some condensation in rainy weather, but sounds like you sealled them up good.

call me crazy, not feeling it AT ALL.

 

[Baker1k]

I just like them cause it stands out from what everyone else has, hell anyone can buy eBay projectors and put them in. My cobra is the same way I'm sure some people don't like some of the things I have done to it but it's my own touch.

nice job on them, personally not my style but they came out really nice.

I actually like the idea but they're not showing as well as they should ... if you look at the picture where the pass side is white and the other side is chrome, the white is making the housing lens look milkyish if that makes sense. Maybe it's the pic. But if in real life it looks as clear as the chrome side then never mind.

But they are definitely unique.

 

[Baker1k]

The stock lights are a little oxidized that's prolly what you are seeing. Still got to polish them to remove it all. But I'm going to put them on the back burner for a while have other stuff to spend money on with a baby on the way.

I simply like them because they are different than everyone else
