Well update time
Got the new house built and just moved in
About to get the jimmy out of storage and into new shop
I did get a few things back from powder the other day
The winch tray and prerunner
I think they turned out pretty well

The lights turned out real good Dick Cepek 6” Round
And C1000’s
I went with the old school look but updating the bulbs in the C1000’s with HID bulbs
They did a grey powder with satin black trim
I ordered the Xentec HID H4 bulbs for the Cepek C1000’s
Everything likf it will work out good
When I get them fired up I will post some pics
The C1000’s originally came with a 210 watt H4 bulb but those no longer exist and due to the high heat you have to drive while they are on. If you left them on to link the bulbs would bust do to the heat. Butt they where bright as the damn sun when they where on.
We shall see if all this works out

With the latest batch of powder coat items
I had the trim rings done on the fender marker lenses
I think they turned out pretty good with the smoked Klearz lenses.
I will say if you try to take the rings off be very careful they are a little delicate.

Those smoked lenses turned out great.
Thanks!
They are a little pricey but seem to be good quality and I was a little worried the powder coat was not going to take and hold on the factory trim rings
The trim rings are pretty thin and when you sand blast it makes them a little more fragile.
I was worried with how much you have to bend them to take them off the factory lenses when you coat them and reinstall if the powder would crack when you bend them back but it seems to have held up good

I've put a few hids into incandescent housings and they all worked out pretty well provided the actual point of light is positioned properly. The reflectors in conjuction w/ the lens have a focal point where they work best. The led inserts don't seen to work as well because they're using multiple emitters thus a 'larger' point of light. More beam scatter.
Good info!
That’s what I was thinking as well
We shall see on it . I’m hoping to get a decent result out of it

I like them so much better than HID, I can’t find any reason to consider HID after going LED.
