    Just put in my order for a set of murano retros and can't wait to get the finished product. From the looks of things they will be nothing less then prefect! Sweet looking setup!

    What does the Clear Glass Version by Toyota mean? And what's the asterix mean?

    The MURANO Club is getting too Big!
    No longer Exclusive :(

    However the ACURA TL Club is more Exclusive.
    The color of the ACURA Projectors are Beautiful!     ​

    Rad, if I provide my own OEM headlights, would you be able to add glass DRL lens to my build?
    Better yet, is there an amber glass DRL lens option?

    ^TY MAXIMUS FOR YOUR INTEREST

    I appreciate your interest but how Toyota redesigned the new updated headlights will not allow us to just add it in. You'll have to purchase the newer headlights as a complete unit. The outer housing and bezel are completely different in design.

    We can do the retrofit from your OEM Headlights if you like or we can go with the new version. You can offset the cost by selling your OEM HL.

    Kind regards,
    RAD    ​

    It's getting big! If I had money, I would love to join the ls460-r bandwagon :devil:

    I know back in the day, you ran FX-Rs, but didn't you switch to an OEM projector at one point?

    ^ I've ran 3 Different sets of FX-R Retros since 2009/10. I've been extremely happy with them and I find them to be a complete upgrade from the horrid halogen stock option. I am now going on to my 4th Retrofit to feature the Murano Projectors. I debated long between the Acura & Muranos because I love them both.

    My New Build

    OEM MURANO PROJECTORS
    ANTHRACITE METALLIC GREY BOWL/SHROUD
    BLACK BEZEL w/SMOKE BLACK PARKING LIGHT CORNER
    RECESSED WHITE HALO
    RECHELON ICON ETCHED LENS
    RED LED DEMON EYE
    RED PASSIVE DEMON EYE
    SMOKE CLEAR REFLECTOR

    * SOME OTHER DETAILS ;) *



    THE LS460-R . . . We have a set in house right now that I was going to run on my truck. However I made the decision to go with the Muranos. They're the best overall value with the option to really customize around it. The LS460 is a great Projector but I am not a fan of the Shroud at all. If you're going to do the LS460. . . You're going to want to run that OEM Shroud to let others know how Baller you are. That ain't me. . . LOL.


    I'd rather the Muranos or TL Honestly.

    See, I LOVE the shrouds. Something about them I like. Maybe it's the exclusiveness lol

    Anyways, free bump! Order peeps, so I can see some more crafted headlights!

    ^ We have pictures of both but none in the same location on the same level. So its hard to distinguish the difference at different angles from our camera shots. ​

    * * ALL EMAILS ANSWERED JUST NOW * *

    We're going to have to redo some stock pictures to show the difference of all the projector options.    ​

    1. MINI H1 ( RECOMMEND TO GET FX-R 3.0 ) ​

    ​
    2. FX-R 3.0 ( BEST OVERALL OPTION FOR OUTPUT & COST )​

    ​
    3. MURANO ( THE WIDTH / THE SLOPE / THE COLOR (NOT AS NICE AS ACURAS )​

    ​
    4. ACURA TL ( BEAUTIFUL RAINBOW COLOR / WIDE BUT NOT AS MUCH AS MURANO )​

    ​
    5. KIOTO LED PROJECTOR ( VERY BRIGHT WHITE / NOT AS WIDE IN WIDTH AS ITS CENTRALIZED )​

    ​
    6. LEXUS LS460-R ( JUST ELITE STATUS )​




    HAVE A NICE WEEKEND     ​
