So as of right now, you could get a fog ticket and headlight tint ticket...lol
I was already planning on switching the headlight bulb to led type bulbs for a brighter output and I think I will leave the fogs as they are. I would love to get some hid's but that is a lot more money than I have right now. All in All I am pleased with the out come.
GO BIG RED!!!!

Okay thanks for the help on that one, I always thought that with the led bulbs they would be brighter. guess not, so I will just start my search for some HID's.
So with this moving to the HID's, what brands/type are good and what should I stay away from. I have heard a lot about them and bad ballast, short use, etc. Any info/help would be greatly appreciated.

So lets just say that I tried driving and it was like having someone hold zippo's lighters for head lights, unless the fogs were on I was driving blind. So I went to work and ended up with this.
Let me know what you think. I am still gonna end up getting some hid's down the road. For now I think this works pretty good.

Wow! That actually looks sweet!
A vast improvement over what you originally did.
Ties in nicely w/the grill.
Did you tape it off and then work it with the gasoline?
On a side note...What did you use to paint your grill?
I've been thinking of painting the cross hairs on mine.
LMK and again nice job.
