so i rear ended someone . and have been driving around with broken tabs and a messed up bumper. luckily it was little damage



using that as an excuse to fix the front end i went ahead and bought some chrome housing headlights and 5k hid bulbs


after that did a little baking and opened up my sportcross fogs light and sanded down the
the yellow .originally i liked yellow but going a different direction

comparison



complete but going to get them wet sanded as well and also ordered some 5k high power led bulbs to match



so about 3 day later i dropped my car off and this is the progress. getting the hood repainted and the fenders pulled by 2in. also getting the front bumper fixed and shaving the front side markers





will post more pics hopefully ready by tomorrow

thanks man.
just had a question for u
how did install leds where the foot wells are?

Donnybueyy

This is my new account just fyi (dtcsurfer). I bought two LED strips, a switch, and wiring. Their should be a ground, supply volt, and on ACC options on the switch. Put the switch wherever you want. What I did was i drilled a hole in one of those clip-in things next to the traction control switch (You can put the wiring through the inside of the middle console area). Then put your LED strips under both the foot wells and have the negative wires from the strips connect to the ground option of the switch, and the positive wires from the strips to the on ACC option on the switch. Then use the extra wiring you got and connect a piece from the ground option to any metal in the driver side foot well area (tape or screw). Now connect a piece from the supply volt option all the way to the battery of the car. There is a small hole you have to cut open on the driver side to get wiring into the engine bay, and put the wiring on the positive part of the battery (red). Tuck all the wiring in and your good to go. I installed mine a while ago so I might of mixed up some things but you can check other DIY forums to make sure you do it right.
