    well they are done now. i bought an extra set of headlights in case i made a mistake.it was so super easy to do.did anybody else have to loosen up the bumper a little bit to sneak out the lights? i just have to kill my chrome grille,add a grille insert,and yellow the fogs.here they are.

    I should have loosened the bumper... I scratched the hell out of the first original headlamp I pulled out on the top... :/ I didn't find it so blatantly 'easy' as a lot of people say it is lol... especially getting to those freak'n invisible bolts.

    Looks good though, awesome work!

    I didn't loosen the bumper and mine came out pretty easily. Overall it was an easy mod, but I have to say I was nervous as hell while doing it.

    Looks great...

    Looks good! I like how you kept the reflective chrome for the turn signal...that's the best way to do it :thumbsup:
