    Sick build. Looks great already.

    What headlight unit did you get? Did they come with the LED running lights or did you put those in separate?

    Got these ones, but i think i got mine off Ebay. The LEDs came with it.
    Honestly if i could do it all over again I would probably go with a regular 2 piece light with a mod. These are Tricky to get fit. At lease mine did. Had to build a custom bracket to make it fit. Instructions not that good and i had to Cut the support grill and modify the edges for the 1 piece to fit....Once they all done its pretty cool. Just takes some work to get them to fit right.

    But also keep in mind my truck had a pretty messed up front end. So might of just been me bent or missing something. Still dont think you can get away from cutting the support for the ends of the grille.
