If you paint the bottom 2, PLEASE dremel them first, or it will look TERRIBLE.

-But fogs would be cool too!

1) yeah got them on ebay. they are great, come in black or chome like i have, and are about 120? i did my research, highly supported! my right is starting to fog ah well another project!

2) do you mean painting the grilles red? no, havent given that a thought... could do a photoshop request to see if you like it!

I like it 'cause its CHEAP. it was 8 bucks! not 120 off ebay, and besides, i like the pattern! thanks for the support, i hadent seen it done so i figured id post it up.

Yeah same thing happened to me I got projector headlights and they started to leak so I took them off and returned them. The company sent me a new set but I am Skeptical to put them back on. Mine starting leaking around the rubber gasket that goes around the bulb area. I ended up with the stock headlights back on. What a pain.

I like that silver grill, I may do that to mine also. What do you think about painting those lower grills Salsa Red also that was my earlier guestion.

u mean the entire lower grille or just the little still black bits? i want them silver too, otherwise, personally, the bottom grille would look tiny!

BTW thanks for the support. im going to tape them off n spray them today/tomorrow. ill post up picks when they're done!

well I have foglights, so it will be just the middle piece of the lower grille. Why are you going to tape them? you arent just going to pull them off?
