In this riveting episode of B is for Build, the team embarks on a daring mission to recreate Lamborghini Mercil logo headlights worth a staggering $23,000. With only a cracked lens to work with, they dive headfirst into the intricate process of 3D scanning the headlight and meticulously designing a replacement. Utilizing cutting-edge technology from Creality, they scan the headlight housing with unprecedented precision, paving the way for a flawless recreation.

The adrenaline-fueled journey continues as they fire up the resin printer to craft the intricate headlight bezels, a crucial component in the reconstruction process. With meticulous attention to detail, they assemble the tubes and housings, painstakingly sanding and painting each piece to perfection. The addition of LED lighting injects a touch of modern flair, setting the stage for the grand finale - mounting the headlights into the car with precision and finesse.

As the project nears completion, the team faces a final challenge - constructing lenses for the headlights that mirror the original design. With expert craftsmanship and unwavering determination, they meticulously build the lenses, ensuring a seamless fit onto the headlight housing. Through ingenuity and sheer grit, they secure the headlights into the car using innovative nutserts, a testament to their unwavering dedication to perfection in every detail.
