    I'd go satin. It will give just a little bit of glimmer to contrast with the shininess of the lens.

    I'd do satin. Flat always seems to show if the paint is different thicknesses.

    Night and day difference between Projectors and reg bulbs. Just had my Retro done and I could not be happier. I wish I could do the lower Fogs, but alas... $$$$$ is always in the way!

    Well, if you are doing the retrofit yourself you can save about $300. If you also do the instal yourself, you can save $1-200. A complete retrofit package from the Retrofit source during a group buy is around $250+.

    That's the back side of this. 62765b1c-df3c-ec8f_ebc89c8379377dbe931001f8ea8d11ea51915fb2.jpg

    I was screwing with it at 1AM because I have no other time to do so and I finished up two gauge swaps last night! One for a guy in Boulder, and one for a guy in PA.

    Depends. One set I did for a Limited 4Runner. If I did ALL of the LEDs, probably close to 4 hours (I have ADD). The Sport Edition I did was about 2. It was really quick.

    Last night I worked from 8:30pm to 12:30am, my new speed record! I usually do just one set per night.
