Look good! When you changed out the emblems did you have any fitment issues? Did the tabs line up etc?

Thanks , the two fender badges lined up with the holes perfectly fine. The tailgate badge needed to have its tabs cut off and the whole thing be sanded down to make it flat (since the 09+ tailgate has the caved in portion where the badge goes) but other than sanding it down to make it sit flush it also covered the holes

Just got my new headlights in. A little backstory.... I ordered HID's for my current headlights BUT at the time I didn't realize the HID's I ordered were meant for the stock 04-08 and not aftermarkets haha. The plug on the passenger side headlight was corroded somehow and it snapped while I was fiddling around so I ordered these http://www.protuninglab.com/hidxe04fof1a1.html which come with HID's already pre-wired and ready so i'll be installing these today!
