everytime I do, at least one of them leaks too. I feel your pain. I'm building a set of headlights now. I will be CERTAIN they seal. TRS mini d2 hi/low projectors with red halo demon eye, delined oem lenses, mini Gatling shrouds, led switch back running strips. Should be nice. I shaved my high beams so I needed a hi/low projector. I want to mimic this, obviously I have a different bumper. But I'm also putting the 92-93 fogs into the 97+ vertex rep, I feel it flows better.

thanks dude!



update! Ordered a set of overfenders, got my car aligned, got my sloppy wiki base map flashed into my car. Tuning will commence today. Btw I'm 100% tuning this myself. ****, if I had an alignment rack I would have aligned it too. I hate people touching my car. I don't trust anyone.

Heres a pic ic of my front fender design I'm stealing from thefattis old set up. He's CF widebody now, and in a different country, so I don't feel bad replicating this up front

for the rear rear I will be doing a fulllllll width diffuser tied into the rear over fenders. Also some sideskirt spoilers and canards will be fitting in here too. After all this I'll probably get a carbon ducktail spoiler to compliment my carbon trunk, carbon hood might get cut up to fit a custom vent. Lots of exterior stuff to come. Glad to see the forums aren't 100% dead

The LS swap looks great! Looks roomy in that bay.

oh yeah! Changing the plugs, or even taking a head off is a breeze.




update! Got all my stuff to finish my diffuser, and fender flares. I also am going to build a set of headlights: led switchback strips, red demon eyes and a morimoto d2s bi-xenon projector. Just need to either source some eBay lights, or bite the bullet and finish sanding my extra set of lenses 😅. Also ordered all my stuff to add onto my exhaust. 4" electric cut out, and 2.25 piping to a obx muffler(oem look) with near oem sound until my cutout is opened.

Having a little trouble tuning it, but I'm just staying busy with other **** that needs to be done. I'll get to it. Lol.

You can do toe adjustments for relatively cheap. You'll just need some toe plates ($60-70), some tiles, 4x4 ramps, and kosher salt. Camber gauges are a little pricier. I think I paid $350.

Here is my setup:
