lol no im not. or the fogs
im actually going to wait till the rear is off as well and sell the kit as a whole, and if not im just going to junk it

for now the car is going to sit bumperless until friday and them im going to put on the license plate and fogs and yada yada


btw idk if i did it correctly, but i tried to align my lights tonight and it seems like i failed at doing so

i measure 25 ft from my friend garage, measured from the ground to the center of the light, then marked that on the garage door, then aimed the lights to about 2 inches from the mark on the door, but i still have a hard time seeing, so its either theyre not strong enough(which means its time for HIDs) , theyre not aligned right, or my eyesight is bad

Mine are aweful too. Get you some HIDs and aim them down toward the road. Really spread them out.

Also, there's a guy posting up that he's looking for some skirts. If your kit wont sell, I bet he'd take your skirts off your hands.
