I dont really like the amber corners with the black headlights. I dont know if its been hit in the front but it sure looks like it. stock corners use to fit perfect. but the lights them selfs need to be pointed right. they point like 5 feet infront of the car and you cant see ****.

It's all about the projectors hehe. But good work though. Projectors are the best.

Great DIY!

How can you get the corners to fit perfectly aligned with the rest of the front clip?

usually with projectors the light is all over the place and will not be the same quality as OEM. OEM with HID is te best because it concentrates light where you need it not 5 feet in front.

lmfao. I took the corners off and looked to see if anything wasnt on right. but I found out that I put the corners on wrong the first time. there a lil clip thingy that the corner has to slid into and I didnt do that the first time. they fit good now.

yeah. you just paint the out side rim of the light. not the full thing or your headlights will be useless.

Damn, do you drive your car around that low, or are you on air?
