Thank you. Actually it did not take long and I really didn't do much. Everything is factory or dealer except for the bezels and the scuttles and they are from Lyles Styles (I LOVE the scuttles!). I'm doing the rear lights and gas cap later this week and then the belt line. After that, I don't know. I've only had the car since 30 December.

No dirty talk! They are 500's an inch or so bigger than factory. Just have to paint my covers black w white trim so it matches the black factor

I had to paint my headlights thought lucky you! I took my time and sanded like i madman and used good paint so they look factory but i like the 2011 silver bixenon thingy inside the light.

Each side works independently



Here's a close up



When they are not in use, they disappear.



I am planning on using the same setup along the bottom of the chrome strips on the back bumper, but I haven't had the time to tackle that project yet.



I'm still looking for a good strip of bright white LEDs to run around the edge of my fog lights too...but one thing at a time, I supose.

I also have 75 color changing LEDs to lighten up the interior, but I don't have any pictures of those running...sorry.

Thanks for looking & happy motoring
nice job on your lights
