Congrats on your new AutoCouture kit!

You've got the 06+ tails as well.
Why not put the 06+ headlights on at the same time?

I thought about doing the headlights. But every single pair I saw for sale had broken tabs. I didn't want to mess with getting them fixed or having to rig something up to hold them in place.

Liquid
I have all my lights from Clear Corners, all Leded Headlights, Rear Tailights, Sidemarkers front and back. MY Headlights insides are painted Pine Green same as my car. Directionals are done real sharp. I went for the complete light setup. Something really different. Wanted the same kit you just did but went for lights, not sorry. Just didn't want an accident make sure you insure the kit as part the car.The kit looks real great, best of luck.

State Farm is pretty good about covering after market parts. They told me anything that's bolted on is covered. I'm not really a fan of the guy who runs clear corners. I emailed him about a set of side markers. Took him a week to respond. Then when I asked him a question, he never bothered to respond. If a used set shows up, I'll buy them. But his customer service kind of left a bad taste.

Worth the trouble. If anything it isnt even trouble. No big deal. The old headlights are disgusting! If the 06+ lighs never existed i would have never bought the car. You should upgrade with my set to accompany sucha a beautiful expensive kit :P
