    Ehh noo, u have to take off the airbag before u get to the screws that holds these things in. Its rather easy to change, i just need to confirm fitment lol. I would be surprised if the 2012 to 2015 dont fit the 2010 and 2011, cause i cant imagine toyota spending money and effort on changing that little thing. But yea.. need to be sure lol.

    That front bumper without the DRL and turn signal looks pretty cool.

    Before (please ignore the faulty fog bulb lmao) 550BD6D0-3F2D-4A54-80DD-3AD6250DA3C4.jpeg
    After

    The cutoff and the brightness are not any retrofit led bulb can provide.

    Did you adjust the leveling/cutoff yet? A lot of the LED headlights are aimed low stock. I fixed mine recently and it’s such a massive improvement. 8mm on the white bolt

    Nah, just threw it in to see how it’d look. Lol it’s going in my M3.
    Finished up a project I’ve been meaning to do the past few weeks. Persona package carpet and armrest swap. I’ll eventually get the door panels done. :LOL:

    Vinyl roof wrap and antenna fin done!

    But to be honest... I’m not 100% feeling it :cry:. I love the subtle color contrast of the black, but oh my god the orange-peel. Holy s#!%.

    Maybe I had higher expectations for “high gloss black” (I assumed a mirror-finish). The lack of reflectivity is even more evident given the recent wax.

    Lol I’m also about to do a 3-stage color correction and 3-layer ceramic. Which means I need to decide to keep or remove it within the next month :mad:. But once the Plus+ kit is installed... decision time!

    So yeah I don’t recommend wrapping your roof in gloss. Either have it painted professionally or skip. Let me know what you think :ROFLMAO:
