Default front end conversion

So I found this soarer/sc on iputinwork.com and instantly became obscessed with the front end. I have no idea what he did but i think the headlights look way better. Like no comparrison. I was wondering if anybody could help my identify what kind of bumper it is and what he did with the headlights?

Looks like an origin bumper, could be wrong, I'm still learning the different kits. As for the lights. Looks like he jut painted the housings black.

Sick ride. Looks like he redid the stock headlights by taking off the oem lens and putting clear lens on. And like peelsc said it's painted in the inside. Also he deleted the high beams. Which is not bad. I like it. As for the front bumper idk..

Ive just never seen an aftermarket bumper that was set up for that. I wonder if he modified it with bondo or somthing. It almost looks too clean for that tho

definitaly the origin front.. with deleted high beams. cant buy em that way but can close the high beam openings and paint over. i honestly am not a huge fan of deleted high beams cause im too used to knowing their there lol

and yup OEM headlights pulled apart and inside painted.

i know this guy too, or have him on facebook or something and he is on here somewhere lol
