Mopedmark Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) Hi Zedders, I have been pondering with DRLs for a while but a most of you know I like making my own parts if possible. Anyway these are my next little creation, I borrowed a standard set of front bumper reflectors from my old mate 14N.first job was to drill out 5 perfectly spaced out 13mm holes in each, then prep for for paint, so rub down first 600wet n dry then 1000 to smooth them out, first coat was an etch primer,then 2pack undercoat, this is followed by 3 coats of base coat (blade silver) all finished with 3 coats of clear.This was the easy bit as the 10mm led lights I used have a little black plastic socket that they fit into which in turn fit nice and snug into the 13mm holes, these little black parts are also colour coded to match. I then wired up each led to the next then put a connection clip in there so when I wired them up to the side lights I can simply unclip them to remove the bumper if needed All ready to be wired up Hope you like them They are nice and bright so in the day they will do a good job Edited January 29, 2015 by Mopedmark 5 Quote

ZEUS Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 DRLs are not my thing at all but the quality of the workmanship is very impressive Quote
Daryl Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 Looks good, however,think that if the LED's were covered, it would look better, but great job. Do you have a link to the LED's you bought? Quote
