Arrow Custom HID Projector Retrofit with Halo on 2011 Mustang [PIC HEAVY]

StockD, Kris, (his link) here on the forums did a custom HID retrofit for me and they turned out GREAT! I bought a set of OEM lights from "10silverstang" and had them shipped to Kris to do a set of HID lights retrofitted into a projector with a hidden halo (you've never seen this kid of halo before people. It's not what you think!) behind it. I opted for the clear turn signal compartment so I could put Raxiom Switchbacks (just ordered) in there and then had the chrome parts behind the projector lens all painted black to give it a "smoked" effect without actually smoking it out and affecting the light output. I must say these lights are just so sick! Very easy to install. Me and "ZPounds07GT" did them after I got off work the night they arrived on my doorstep. Huge thanks to him for helping me out! We also were able to easily aim the lights. They're still a little off because apparently my driveway is a little slanted so I gotta do a little more tweaking to them but they're aimed almost perfect right now. Driving with projectors of any type is always great. It's a more concentrated and consistent light beam. With HID's in there it's over-the-top fantastic! When its fully sunny out, the hidden halo LED lights up bright and it's pretty cool rolling around with just the halo's on. Already gotten a few funny reactions like *nudge* "bro, bro....his lights! Yo....that Mustang, bro. So fresh." I'm just kidding. No seriously that's probably what they're saying. Anyways, overall the process good. Kris is a really chill guy and was cool enough to let me do split payments (one for parts and one for labor) to go easy on my wallet They took a little longer than expected but that's because this guy seriously makes sure everything is perfect and he got A LOT of business within the last holiday season which is awesome.

If you have any questions that you need thoroughly answered, PM me. I'd be glad to explain! Contacting Kris via his Facebook if you're a serious buyer is also a great to get more info. TIME FOR MOAR PICTARS OF MY CAR!

Cut-off on a wall (distant) low ISO so the shape of the light is shown. They're brighter than this obviously.

For those of you that know me and the mods I've had planned. I did finally do the lowering springs back at Christmas. I have threads on that. But what's next? A 5.0 GT ;p but I'm actually thinking I may get some wheels for this car and then transfer them over to the GT once I get it. I mean why not! So that's what's next. Hope you guys like the lights! I do! The halo is different. So you can't say "halo's belong on BMW's" Nope. Depends on the halo

That's pretty sweet looking! He pulled it off nice. What projectors did he use? Are they sealed in the rear pretty well?
I have a set of TSX projectors sitting in my attic, you just inspired me to go see where they're at. Checking out his website right now.

They are very well sealed. You can tell he loaded them down with sealer to make sure. They really are great quality pieces.

Thanks! FX-R's are what he used. On his facebook there's an album for just my car and it shows everything that was used.
