    Did you have a hard time threading them in? Unfortunately I did and will probably need to file her down. =\

    They're the stock bulbs, but I applied a vinyl overlay to the lens. Provides a way deeper yellow than any tinted bulb I've found.

    Yeah I had to file them both a little inwards so the bolts would catch.

    Very nice Meisters! Did the previous owner scuff up the lower front bumper? Time to put the lip kit on there.

    So I had this convo with my Girlfriend last night after I forgot to take out the trash "Your priorities seem to be 1. Gym 2. Fixing up your car 3. Then me." Guess I'll have to slow doing the mods and take her out to dinner :( Don't think she will be too happy when my stage10 shifter arrives in the mail on Monday (y) Hopefully the shifter will be worth sleeping on the couch for a night...
