the demon eye is when you have the projectors glow red on the inside behind the lens. Angel eyes is the same as halo rings. Demon eyes are extremely illegal to use on public roads.

if you use a LED ring, but you don't want the full ring to light up, you can use something to cover the bulbs you want hidden. Some people use some type of tape or sometimes they paint over the LEDs they don't want to shine through. Not sure if you can disconnect the LED without cutting power to the rest of the loop since they are all wired in series together.

Halos are legal because the light is white. Demon eyes are illegal because red imitates emergency vehicles

The G will be simple and classy. The shrouds I was going to use originally won't fit in the housing properly, so i had to switch to a smaller simplier one. The Titan I'm going to be working on is going to be stealthy, but eye popping.

Anson's parts and My parts for the G were all shipped out today. I had forgotten that my source code for free shipping from TRS works on all the shipping options, so i only selected Priority shipping. Didn't want to rip them off on shipping charges when I'm not in a rush situation.
