Installed XenonDepot 4300K HID's for low beams and fogs. Polished headlights with Meguiar's M205 and PlastX and also blacked out the chrome window trim.

I was $0.30 short of the $50 threshold for free s/h on an Amazon order, so I looked through my wish list to see what was worth adding... Ended up grabbing two sets of Deeza LE-L617 rear sway bar end links, which were recommended by a member here. I don't know if they're a Black Friday special or just heavily discounted randomly, but it's basically buy 1 get 3 free.

Edit: Looks like the stock dwindled fast! Should be lots of clunk-free SCs soon.

Reinstalled my coils, lowered the car a little, and took it in for an alignment.

Had all the tail lens bulbs changed out (Sylvannia long life bulbs) as well as front turn signals and fog lights. Swapped in a new battery. No more lamp out indicator when lights are on and when braking.

Managed to take two shots of the splitter the bodyshop made for me...

It is mostly plug and play for the headlights, for the fogs I had to use a dremel to make an opening for the wires to feed through. Other than that it was pretty simple, there are guides on here and on Youtube as well. I got it without the CANBUS no need for it.

^ I can't tell what wheel diameter that marking is on the shredded tire, but I'm guessing 18"?
