So I was looking at the newer body style and I love the front of the car specially the lights and grille and it got me thinking , I had recently plasti-dipped my grille black and my "parkingsidecourtesyfog" lights housing and to tie it all together I had to do the headlights too!.
So after 4 days (weekdays) of laughing, crying , drinking and cursing it was done!


.. Sorry about the attachment, posting off of my iPad still figuring it all out

Well done, the color scheme ties together perfectly!

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Bravo! :clap2:

VERY well done! :ok:

Now the next step, is to re-bake them open a 2nd time, and add-in some well placed addt'l LED lighting.

Like either a ribbon of it along the horizontal lines that you left chrome (would look sinister and akin to the new 'Stangs)..... or elsewhere.

Advanced Automotive Concepts has got a WEALTH of lighting ideas / options.
