Default Headlight up grade
My 2006 originals headlights were replaced by these great black ones and she looks wayyyyyy better !!!!! Also a new front bumper and an upper, freshly painted valence. (Due to a fender bender.

Not to hijack his thread, but a good point you brought up. I'll be replacing my housings soon, just run a bead of silicone around the entire thing where the lens mates to the housing?

Yeah... been through that several sets. Finally broke down and bought OEM Harley heads.
Lens are cheap too and like to spider and turn to haze.
