Love it! You should have figured out a way to get rid of that ugly orange reflector though.

The reflector is mandated by the US DOT. Not sure if the cops in your area would recognize the difference though.

He could import some jdm headlight of the z12, they don't have that reflector over there.

Nice job on the headlight, clean.

Right, the JDM lights come with the clear reflector and it looks so much better.

You're absolutely right bro..

I really want to get rid of my amber reflector on my headlight.. I change the corner light bulb to chrome ones and it looks great but the only thing that I want to get rid is that amber reflector ones.

That looks darn good Randode! I'd like to do that to mine, although it would be much more subtle since my Cube is almost black to begin with.

Also, where did you get that grill in your avatar? Did you make it? I ask because I'm looking for a perfectly smooth, solid grill for mine.
