The uptick of the cutoff is really bugging me out. I'm going to take these apart shortly and adjust the cutoff. I want it flatter like my MH1's. Comparison...

Once I modify the cutoff shield I'll take new cutoff photos as well as ground shots.

The one thing I am debating... paint the brackets black, or leave them matching the ram air mesh. Opinions?

Looks even more bug eyed than ever, haha. But no one puts their lights up in the day anyways. Still, the first thing I thought after bug-eyed was "paint that shit!"

Still a badass upgrade.

+1 for paint. Nice job integrating them though.

Paint it is. Flat/matte black, or gloss?

I would say flat to blend with the plastic.

Yeah definitely needs paint. I need those high beam projectors to complete mine. I also need to show you my completed MH1 retro in my ws6.

Thank ya all. I may pull the bezels and repaint them while painting the brackets. Just to keep everything looking the same.

best: I'd love to see! I REALLY would rather some MH1's. The Hella's are 290349023490 times better than stock, but I'm really finicky about perfect cutoff's and output :(
