After alot of time and some failed experiments I found something that will work for a shroud.


And even better its rated for heat!

These are the parts left over after I hacked it up. The first cut was to cut off the back end and extract the innards. Fortunately the pretty opening just has the innards pressed against it. Saved me from having to cut inside the tip. The second cut was to cut the needed end off the tube. I put a line around the tip at 1 5/8" from the tip. I managed this by using a scrap of lexan that was my test peice for heating up and bending. Drilled a hole through it, slipped the sharpie point in and turned the exhaust tip while in contact.




Test fitting the backer plate and shroud. Backer is only primered at this point. I have some gloss blank engine paint to finish it off with. It still needs a bit of work to align and seal. Also have yet to figure out a good way to mount the shroud to the projector.



Closed the hood.. I need to drop the projector body more, damn thing is STILL to high, even though the beam is at a good aim the lens body is to close to the hood.
