Official Altima Coupe Projector GB

[brandonbeeb]

lights are still going on, ill have a few pictures of 2 sets up later tonight for you guys.

[bina12834]

what happened to the tails?

[LongBeachCoupe]

what happened to the tails?

TBD after all the headlights are done.

[brandonbeeb]

couple new pics for you guys from my phone crappy quality, the lights where just drying/being sealed up so they arnt completely done. one of the pic shows the seal on one of them. dual setup one angel eye hidden, one demon eye both with the new angel eye batch[img]https://forum-attachments.sfo2.digital ... 4.jpg/[img]

Looks sweet Brandon. I thought the new batch of angel eyes were the thick?

[bina12834]

so whats up with all the crappy phone pics? you have yet to show us pics from a REAL camera that ARENT blurry and dark. Just makes it seem like youre trying to hide something.

[brandonbeeb]

wow bina thanks for that, glad to know theres so much trust in me considering you have had lights done by me. the reason there isnt high quality pics, it says in the post. i was going to post them up today, i took those while i was sealing up the lights for the customer just so he could see where things where at with them. i have nothing to hide, there wouldnt be a point, id rather he see what they look like now instead of getting them and not liking something and them having to come back. camera pics will be up very shortly and il prove theres nothing to hide

[brandonbeeb]

ok guys heres for anyone that thinks im hiding anything, if theres any angles or different pics you want let me know ill get them before i ship these out. a couple members have even wrote me emails telling me since all that stuff happened a few months ago and theyve gotten there lights and loved them that i still wont hear the end of that and people wont really just let it go, which is fine. all the lights that are left is no one is happy with them once they recieve them send me an email let me know what the problem is well see if we can fix it through a phone call if its wiring related or you need help getting everything running. if its something in the actual light, like your not happy with how a shroud is or if an angel eye gets busted during shipping let me know and ill pay for the shipping back to me. in regards to the angel eyes ive had to pay shipping a couple times back because people have said they arnt working but once ive got them back they worked fine. if your having problems with them it could be the ballast you have for them isnt fully lighting them (angel eye flickers or only half powers on), so theres a few things to check for. the new angel eyes there are 2 batches one is the slim line like the set im posting right now the other is the thick one, you will see them on dangeris lights next week once there finished. the thick ones are a little bit more money, but the new thin ones are great, there hasnt been any issues with them, only issue is with shipping and tabs being broken comming to me. sorry about the light pictures with the refelections in them its hard to get a nice clear shot and alot of spots or sparkles you see are from the lights

I was wondering what was up with that statement. I thought that bina had lights done by brandon and was satisfied with them . Obviously not

[dangeris]

... if your having problems with them it could be the ballast you have for them isnt fully lighting them (angel eye flickers or only half powers on), so theres a few things to check for. the new angel eyes there are 2 batches one is the slim line like the set im posting right now the other is the thick one, you will see them on dangeris lights next week once there finished. ....

Yeah the old set of thin angel eyes was a hit or miss thing. My drivers side sometimes wouldn't fire up and sometimes it's only half lit up or sometime it doesn't even want to fire up at all Very Very frustrating...and when I broke it down to send them back to Brandon, one of the ends was electrically burnt. Brand told me that the new batch of angel eyes were a lot better and that I shouldn't have problems with it like I did with the last one. Can't wait to get them back!

[brandonbeeb]

ya i thought bina was happy with his lights. i know he had to send one back to me because of an angel eye he said wasnt working, i got it back tested it and it was good to go and havnt really heard from him, im hoping if he wasnt happy once he got that one back and had them installed he would have told me. id rather you guys when you recieve them be straight up with me and let me solve the problem then not tell me and be unhappy with them. most of the members on here can contribute to the fact i want to make sure everyone is happy with a product.

[dangeris]

and i thought bina was selling his lights because he had to find a place to live and needed the money for down payment... It seemed to me that he was saddened of selling them. Guess not.

[legend_217]

You know those people just give excuse of having problem with their economic but I think they're not honest and telling the truth at all.

[statik83]

Brandon your doing an awsome job man, keep up the good work. The last picks of lights you posted looked badass. I cant wait to see pics of mine.

[statik83]

Hey I was wondering if anyone has put overlays on their Brandon custom lights? Not do dis you Brandon in any way. Your lights are badass. I'm just saying that maybe for some Altima Coupes it might compliment the ride. I have a black coupe and I am debating on the bluebats cut front overlays.

[brandonbeeb]

hey thanks for the compliments, ya i wouldnt mind seeing an overlay myself, it would need to be on a light without the leds up it. only done one set without them yet and thats dangeris car, gonna have to talk him into it lol

[bina12834]

ya i thought bina was happy with his lights. i know he had to send one back to me because of an angel eye he said wasnt working, i got it back tested it and it was good to go and havnt really heard from him, im hoping if he wasnt happy once he got that one back and had them installed he would have told me. id rather you guys when you recieve them be straight up with me and let me solve the problem then not tell me and be unhappy with them. most of the members on here can contribute to the fact i want to make sure everyone is happy with a product.

i did end up selling them to someone over seas, and guess what? the same halo isnt working for him either. big suprise! i thought you said there was nothing wrong with it? and you cant blame shipping on this one, because you can ask the guy himself....i packed that box as well as i could....a tank could have rolled over that thing and not hurt the headlight.

and i thought bina was selling his lights because he had to find a place to live and needed the money for down payment... It seemed to me that he was saddened of selling them. Guess not.

yea i was saddened....saddened that i wasted all this time, effort, money etc. in these things....but thats the onyl thing in saddened about

so i send it back you tell me everythings good then after you ship it again and its not working your saying its my fault. i sent you pictures before it left my house working, i had it wired up and it worked. this is what im talking about people just not saying anything then just posting it out in the open without even sending me an email to resolve this issue. it could be a bad inverter all you had to do was send me an email and i would send one out to you to try. i thin you forgot to mention to people i even payed the shipping back to me and didnt make you repay that even after i tested it and found nothing wrong with it

[brandonbeeb]

also it doesnt matter how good the boxes are packed if there still getting tossed around especially if you shipped it overseas. there ccfl angel eyes if youve seen them you will know how fragile they are. get the person who purchased them to send me an email and well see what we can do to resolve it for him

i dont even know where to start here.....

first....i never said everything about it being fine when you sent the one problem headlight back to me. i never even hooked it back up to my car. i took it out of the box you sent it to me, and stuck it with the other one, packed it up, and sent it away to my buyer

second....you just said something about yourself and your quality of workmanship....you said you tested it and everything worked fine, but that it might be a bad inverter.....shouldnt you have tested the inverter when i sent it back to you because there was something wrong? obviously something still is broken if its still not working for someone else.

third....we did try to solve this via email, but that obviously didnt work, and i have the emails to prove it.

lastly....i think you forgot to mention that you asked me to split(and i complied) the shipping cost of shipping the light back to me because there "nothing wrong with it to begin with"

[bina12834]

also it doesnt matter how good the boxes are packed if there still getting tossed around especially if you shipped it overseas. there ccfl angel eyes if youve seen them you will know how fragile they are. get the person who purchased them to send me an email and well see what we can do to resolve it for him

he doesnt want to deal with sending it all the way back here(i dont blame him...it was a pain sending them half way around the world), so hes going to talk to some custom shops around him. I gave him your email address if he had any questions.

[brandonbeeb]

ok well now that youve basically called me out on everything. i asked you to split shipping with me which meant you covered the cost of shipping back, i still paid for the shipping to me which i have no problem with for headlights that have an issue. i stand behind it. if hes going to get it fixed where he is, tell him to send me an email and ill ship him out a new email and ballast so he doesnt have to pay for that or have trouble finding a matching one. i tested the inverted and everything here im just saying if its having issues it could be a bad inverter even if i did test it. the part that bugs me is you could have sent me an email asking me about this instead of posting this up in here about something you should have checked once you recieved it back. i know if i sent something out to be fixed and i got it back i would check to make sure it was fixed. other then the angel eye you told me you where happy with the lights so for you to call me out on my workmanship is pretty bogus unless you lied about liking the lights. i stand behind my lights and will fix them no matter what the situation. the angel eye isnt hard to test when you got it back, hook it up to a 12v battery from a drill or anything else and just see if it lights up you dont even need to instal it. like i said get him to send me that email il send him out a new ballast and angel eye so he can get it resolved ill even cover shipping overseas, or if he doesnt send me an email just let him know ill send him one and forward me his email. id rather it gets resolved then you get stuck in the middle when its something we can fix

[bina12834]

if you guys want the gods honest truth...yea i needed the money, but i also was very unhappy with them....i spent $1500~, 5 months of my time (when i was told it would only be a matter of a couple weeks once he got my lights) and 700 emails on a product that didnt meet my standards. And i have a feeling that other people that have sold their lights or their spots in the GB, no matter what they say, sold them for the same reason(if anyone wants to come out and back me up on this, fine, if not, thats also fine...ill go at this alone)

i didnt make it known that i was unhappy with them because i was tired of spending time on these things. 5 months is waaaay too long, and i didnt want to have to deal with them anymore. sure i could have shipped them back to you and said that i wasnt happy with them, but honestly i dont think you couldve done anything to make them better. you told me that these were going to be perfect and flawless and blah blah after that whole big shabang happened when people started back out, and you were trying to keep me in the GB. but honestly, i dont think you idea of "perfect" and "flawless" is on the same level as mine.

I don't mean to get in the middle of this, but after reading brandon's last post I have an idea of what the issue might be. Please feel free to correct me if you have the specs on the inverter.

I did a lot of my testing for my own projects early on with a 12v power supply. Its not a good way to test anything that's going to go in your car. The actual voltage coming off the car is going to be anywhere between 11v and 15v. It all depends on if the car is on, if its running off the alternator, if its running off the battery that's being charged, etc. So if its not a part you are manufacturing and can regulate the voltage, you need to have an inverter that can take those variable voltages and turn it into something usable. If its just a 12v inverter, you can seriously effect the life of the ccfl and the inverter by over and under volting it.

As I said, it could be fine depending on the inverter specs, but it would definitely have the same behaviors as to what you've both been describing. There's also the issue of running the inverter off the stock wiring without a relay in place. I don't know the specs on what you're using, so it may not be an issue.

Edit: Hope this helps and let me know if you need info on a better DC supply. I found one on amazon (not ebay, sorry for the confusion) that is variable and can do a range of voltages and currents. Its helped me out a ton for testing and accurately recreating the conditions of the car.

[brandonbeeb]

alright well if thats how you feel fine, im sure this will just add more fuel to the fire with these projectors and a nice bandwagon jumping will start, i had local guys take a look at your lights before i shipped them out and they loved them, even guys with subarus and coupes that where local getting there lights done. anyone thats had problems i told them i would stand behind them but i guess its true you cant please everyone, im just not very happy with how you went about handling this.

[bina12834]

im not saying stuff didnt work....everything worked the way it was supposed to(except that one halo). its the quality. the quality was very poor. sure the front of the light looks fine, but i was highly disapointed at the wiring job and the hack job you did at opening up/re-sealing my lights. the wiring job was very ameture and looked like something that i could have done myself(with my 0 wiring knowledge). there were dots of silicone on the inside of the headlight lens, the one projector lens was all scratched up, there was debris on the inside of my headlight. sorry....but that stuff is not up to my standards.

[brandonbeeb]

the wiring job? i got you plug and play adapters for the highbeams, the inverters had factory plugs on them. the opening job? like give me a break everyone thinks that these are going to be factory seal they cant, you basically have to crack open the lights,

[brandonbeeb]

if you want to keep bashing me go ahead im done replying to this, there is pictures for people to see, clearly your not going to say anything positive so im just going to let it go. i offered to resolve the issue for you, theres pictures of a seal well more then one picture that shows the seal, ive already discussed this before you cant get a factory seal since the lights whernt made to open like many others. im sure you will have plenty more negative things to say about me and my work and im sure i will be recieving emails from other members after this

[legend_217]

gli liphon. According to what you said. In this case, ground kit would help to maintain the 12 voltage ?

[brandonbeeb]

i think im going to have to pick up a grounding kit myself, solve some of the problems with the voltage.
