thanks. They look really good from the front but up close there is small stuff that bugs me. I know I'm just being hard on myself because I put in so much work and it didn't turn out quite as well as I had hoped. However no one else that's seen them has noticed so I'm feeling better about that
Your retro came out good though, I like the color match.

I didn't take any. I basically made the hole bigger, shaved some of the reflector bowl thinner, and shortened the bulb connection area on the back of the housing.i didn't use the silicone grommet either bc I would have had to trim way more.

Gotcha. Thanks. My kit is on its way. Just debating if I want to grab a set of FX4 knockoffs from amazon or pick up a cheap used oem set to do...

Got my buckets and shrouds painted tonight. Went with Fusion satin black. Overall looks good. A few imperfections maybe from stuff landing on them while painting. Don't have a clean environment to paint, so pretty pleased. Think they'll look good with lenses back on even though they aren't perfect.

Got mine mocked up as well. Pretty happy with the look. Left the turn signal/running light reflector chrome bc I didn't want to degrade its output and think it'll tie in with the reflector of my Rigid bar in the bumper.
Went ahead and put the harness together and *hope* to get this finished up tomorrow or Thursday night.
