    apparently not in your case haha. you just got shafted with the screw in your headlight. You have anyone do it for you? I have been looking around salvage yards for a set. I was hoping to start a "I will black them in exchange for your stock" cycle

    It is really easy to do, I have no prior experience painting and mine turned out great. There are a ton of threads here about it so just look in those, good luck:thumbsup:
