I think it looks spectacular! For the fronts did you have to open them yourself or did the paint shop open them for you? Do your high-beams still work like factory? On another member's car he painted his and then his high-beams didn't work as well.

Well I got them in. Bad news is I chipped the paint on the headlights on the corner. Good news is I can cover it up with a vinyl overlay that will look good on it. Just used some clear nail polish to seal it so it doesnt chip more. A hazard you take when putting a bumper back on :p

The lights are a LITTLE dimmer but not by much. The high beams are actually still quite bright. A lot more than I was expecting.

I didnt open any lights on this. My next pair of lights however are going to be done that way.

Actually I might go ahead and get those headlight and tailight caps from the modelista kit and put them on. I think it will look slick.
