It's gonna be an AAC kinda weekend!

Going to install my 2.0 color shift halos in my headlights and fog lights this weekend. Also going to install my SMD afterburners and my color shift footwells. Then I'm going to install my pa system and siren. :-). If my catch can was here I'd be putting that On as well but that won't be here till next week along with my NS-1 carbon fiber stripe package. Whew, busy but fun weekend ahead. Hope it all goes well.

Where'd you get the PA system/siren from? Been looking for a decent one for my golf cart, lol.

Southwest public safety. The one I ordered was a little pricey because I had to go with the smallest one they had since we don't have a lot of room inside our cars. Already put the speaker on behind the front bumper brace in front of radiator. Fit like a glove.

So My afterburners are done and installed. Wasn't as bad as I was making it out to be, thanks to everyone's experience already. They really do make the rear end look a lot better. MY halos are in on my drl lights and my headlights are in the oven as we speak. We will say what a pain opening this thing will be. Baking at 275 degrees for 18 min. All in all so far so good. I'll post pics once my car is back in order.

so the halos are now in the headlights. My arms feel as if I was at the gym for 2 hrs. I had to re bake them a couple of times to soften em up again because I wasn't quite quick enough. But it worked out well and they do look good I must say in there. I took the factory halo out all together and just put AAC in there. They are VERY bright. I only hope nothing happens to them because It was a project, but worth it especially knowing you did it by yourself. I'm going to mess with my siren and work on the install on that, and run my wires into the car for the 2.0 halo controller while my headlight cure. So far so good. STRONG work AAC!
