Do you have a pic of the beam pattern against a white wall? The back of the housing should really be painted black, leaving the reflector will scatter the light and blind other drivers almost as bad as just putting a kit bulb in the stock housing.

no, don't have any other pics.
it can't blind others via reflector, only with lens at full speed on the verge of wheelie or in right turn. look https://cbrforum.com/forum/showpost....31&postcount=3 how it can blind if line is straight

Sorry, I somehow failed to see that first pic. Yes, you have a nice cutoff, well done. I thought that fluted reflector would catch a lot of scattered light from the back of the lens and the edges of the housing, guess not

They are enclosed projectors so no light escapes through the back. Thats the beaty of these things. Have a set in the mail for me. Havnt decided if Im going to paint black or leave stock. Either way, looks good man.

in 3rd generation added lens highlight, so reflector is used for decoration



i think it's possible to add led strip behind lens and it will be the same

This is an awesome upgrade - very nicely put together!
Where are you guys buying these kits from? I don't see the option to purchase from the manufacturer website listed in the original post. (sorry if this question is a no-no)
