    Is it possible to do a white demon eye? It would just be a white led, correct?

    I feel like I've seen something similar on a BMW, around dusk right before it's dark enough that you have to turn the HIDs on

    The color changing demon eye would allow you to do this. LED demon eyes in single colors don't come in white. It'll look like your headlight is on but very dim essentially.

    We can do a passive white demon eye which is the inside of the projector painted.

    Thanks! Burt sent me some good tips and I have them blue taped right now and will also loosely wrap a towel when I install them.

    The black chrome only comes on the TRD Pro headlights on the bezels. The rest of the light is still chrome so unfortunately no.

    When you do the passive, what do you mean by painting the inside? Do you have pictures?

    Burt, were you able to smoke the DTRL's. Wouldn't that be similar to black chrome?

    Damn, those 2012+ Stage 2s are crazy nice. Will definitely be putting these on my truck sometime when I get some extra mula.

    Smoke or tinted black paint will not stick directly onto chrome. Adhesion promoter or a base coat will dull out the chrome. I can do a "black chrome" paint which is kind of a dark metallic finish.

    Carbon fiber is an option but one we'll probably stay away from. :p

    BURT!
    Thanks for the call brother. Got them all wired and plugged in with not a scratch!
    I'll finish bolting the lights, cleaning up the wiring and put the grill back on for pics tomorrow.
    I surprised myself. No fires, nothing melted, no ER visits, it was a good day.

    Just checked the operation, still has masking tape on lenses.
