Avery
Meet Avery Colburn, the mastermind behind one of our most popular products, the Door E-Cubby. With a lifelong passion for flying inherited from his balloon pilot parents, Avery’s journey into the skies led him to discover the versatile world of paramotors. In 2020, he made the switch, trading in his supercharged Civic for a 2008 Element that could seamlessly accommodate his airborne adventures.
A full-time electronics installer for both automobiles and mobile homes, Avery specializes in a spectrum of enhancements. From car alarms to cutting-edge sound systems, remote starts, and power systems, including solar installations, Avery’s expertise extends across the automotive and mobile living landscapes.
Drawing on a decade of experience in 3D printing and fueled by a desire to unlock the full potential of his Element, Avery embarked on a mission. Leveraging his skills in car electronics installation, he began tinkering and crafting upgrades and modifications for his beloved E.
Avery’s ingenuity extends beyond the Door E-Cubby. He has designed and built a repertoire of custom lighting features for the Element, showcasing his commitment to enhancing every aspect of the driving experience. From transforming fog light switches to turning side markers into turn signals, creating a service light for under the hood, to adding puddle lights – Avery’s contributions elevate the Element’s functionality and aesthetics.
His dedication to innovation and meticulous craftsmanship is evident in each product he develops. Avery Colburn continues to push boundaries, offering Element DIY Designs a valuable partnership that brings cutting-edge enhancements to the Honda Element community. As he soars in the skies and navigates the roads, Avery’s passion for creating seamless and personalized driving experiences shines through in every upgrade and modification he brings to life.
Light Up Your Honda Element with Raptor-Style Lights!
Transform your 2009–2011 Honda Element with our exclusive set of four LED amber Raptor-style lights! Featuring 3D-printed clamshell brackets for effortless installation, these lights come with durable stainless steel screws to ensure a secure fit.
Enhance your front grille with a bold, custom look that stands out day or night. The versatile wiring setup allows you to connect them to your parking lights, headlights, or an independent cockpit switch, giving you complete control over your Element's style.
Please note: This product is designed specifically for the 2009–2011 Honda Element and cannot be installed on earlier models due to the smaller openings in the OEM grille mesh. The larger openings in the 2009–2011 grille allow the cable connectors to pass through seamlessly.
However, for 2003–2008 Honda Elements, we offer our Hex Mesh Grille Shield, which provides a similar look when combined with Raptor-style lights. If you want to achieve that bold, illuminated style for your earlier model, the Hex Mesh Grille Shield is a perfect option!
