well my hood isn't painted yet as I hoped for but I did get the headlights installed now. And me and my friend got bored today and I said you know what I really dont care about this hood anymore so we had a little fun lol It took 4 rolls of black electrical tape haha




I had this HID kit in the old headlights but they just didn't compare to how well these look with these headlights its a dramatic difference. I'm really pleased with how the lights look.

oh yea we were really bored haha we could not figure out anything to do and we didn't wanna get in trouble. Some other things we do when we get bored is go buy a blow gun, we built a potato gun 2 weeks ago this time we just thought we'd do something a little less illegal lol

haha damn ur damage is just a little worse than mine lol hey looks like u didn't lose any washer caps as 1 of mine popped off when I hit that deer and i couldn't find it at the scene lol I finally found a set and bought them!looks liek ur needing a new fender, hood, grill, headlight and it looks like ur front bumper survived luckily. I figured i didn't care about the hood anymore so we did that custom work haha I actually like i think i'm gonna hang it up in the garage to remind me how i dont like deer lol

that pic of your lights, is that before they were aimed? or are yours the same way as mine, i feel like they shine too low. i had about a two week break in between driving my car at night when i got new headlights, and from then on they just seem aimed really low. they work amazing, but i get the same thing as you where it only shines half the car in front of me.

We did aim them but we're not pros at it in any means. We did the pull 6 inches away from a wall and mark the hot spot of the light then backed up 25 feet and made sure the hotspot was within 2 inches of the mark up and down/ lef and right. Dont know if that is the correct way to do it but thats what we heard and I think they light everything up just fine at night. I dont have any problems seeing with them at night at all though
