    No you will be fine.

    I got my hood without the peg...took me over a year to find a replacement that works. Since PYFC said I would have to buy the hood again to just get the peg

    Had some time to finally cut the rest of what I needed to and mount and aim the 2 fxr's. I also cut the reflector for the minis to fit in. So now I need to let this jb weld dry overnight, put the reflector back in, mount and aim the minis, wire up and mount the angel eyes then reseal them up. Oh yeah, paint everything too, I guess it'll be a little still lol
    Some color flicker

    Idk why the look unlevel n faded in the center of the steps. The other night when I went to aim there was no issues, maybe it's just because it's closer on a wall than the 25 feet they say to use, but it is level and the steps should be perfect. Definitely taking my time with all this, as it's a big pain in the a$$!


    These things are pretty bright

    Yup, in the snow again

    Also a snow pic from earlier after I rinsed her off

    Yeah I can get some pics when I take out the headlights again. These are just mounted with jb weld to the back black housing.. if you use screws to mount them, I dont think youll have to cut as much on the car, because they wont be as far set back as this. Not positive tho.

    There seems to be quite a bit, I tried taking a picture but it's hard to tell by it. I'm trying to paint everything now then hopefully mount the mini tonight. So then ill just need to wire up the halos n stuff then can seal them within the next couple days.

    Woohoo, it is getting there! But these are taking way much more work than I thought lol. It's been a bia but it will definitely be worth it when I'm done.
    so I painted the reflectors, shrouds, mounted the halos inside the fxr's, and I have the minis shrouds ready for the halos. All I need to do is mount and aim the minis and put the shrouds on, wire all the halos and splice the wires where they need to be n seal them up!

    Mounted with jb weld, you can see they're sitting far back enough to where the lens will clear.



    Shrouds painted gunmetal with clear!

    angel eyes lit up

    FX Rs angel eyes siliconed and glued in

    Minis shrouds sanded down for the angel eye to sit flush

    Propped up to see the red painted shields a little

    More subtle than the red, pretty happy with them

    Mocked up, just need to mount n finish the minis

    Ohh girl
