Technically, if someone wants to make the reflector piece a la Euro style or other design, I can put them in there when I open up the headlights. But yes, it looks much better like this... especially in clear!

Also, I am kind of curious of other opinions, but looking at the fourth pic, does it appear that JR's Orions are whiter than mine? We were talking about how the Orions usually have a hint of blue, but his look whiter.

Looking at it in person, they looked about the same. I am wondering if the blackout makes it seem whiter.

Yeah the I-5 sucks and there are lots potholes. Was your front lip taped on? I taped and also screwed mine into the bumper. Sorry about the loss.

Looking good man! Simon, you did a great job!!

I think when my unique journey is complete...I'm going to dub-it "Detroit Style" (naming it Chris style has no ring to it lol). But seriously tho...I love how we all feed off each other creatively and give each other great ideas. When I'm finally done...I will have something truly unique but barrowed from everyone on here. I just hope it comes out as CLEAN as yours bro, Congrats!

Hey thanks man. It was collaboration with JR that made it work. He got an unique pick up with the Euro headlights, and it was the first time I was up close and personal with the Euro reflectors. Man, US Dot law is so stupid with the reflector requirement in four corners. It's not like we live in the 1910s were lighting was still crap. But yah, the Euro reflector look so much nicer than the US's orange.

If only I could change that out for everybody, lol.
