Hey there! Not much to show but I'm excited so I figured I would show ya guys anyway. Here are my LED aluminum heat sinks. Drilled, tapped and, brushed! I bought the LEDs and dimmable drivers from Rapidled. Com Customer service was great!! Went with stevesleds for the heat sinks. I just really like how sleek they look. I plan on running the LEDs with halides, but I will only be turning the halides on midday, for about an hour or so, via my Apex. Looking forward to getting to work on the soldering. Lemme know what everyone thinks!

I will keep everyone posted on this project! Should start coming together next week, my vacation from work starts after Monday!
 
Man I plan on doing the same thing with my 54 bow front ...I'm in the middle of welding up my aluminum frame to hold the leds and halide
