    Well for the longest time...
    I have been hiding my lights behind the
    AVS covers because they were so badly pitted
    and fogged up... not a pretty sight at all

    So i got talking to Will OverKill and got some new lights
    So i thought i would show them off ...lol

    Looks nice, I know how you felt. I was so happy when I changed mine out. Makes a huge difference.

    That is a huge difference. I restored my headlights, but one of them has a leak or something as its always getting moisture in it. So I guess I'll be getting a new set soon enough.

    I had the same issue right off the bat. I blew mine dry and sat it in the sun, cleaned my seals better and luckily it has stopped.

    Yeah same thing with the one i just got
    the left side had a leak...
    Took the hair dryer to it dry it up and resealed it
    around the lens, so far so good....
    I would say to anyone buying new lights to do this
    as they do have problems right from the factory...

    And yeah sure did not take long i just come back
    from the car wash and the snow is were i lay to do all my work
    Mind you i do have a plastic tarp down there with me lol

    I bought a set of lights a month ago and cleaned them up good
    but sold them 2 days later thinking i will just clean up those ones
    there.... But i forgot what they looked like till i remover the covers..

    The front air dam is put on with screws
    and held in the front cone with 2 sided tape

    I used 2 self taping screws in the each wheel well
    and for the front i put a screw on each side to help hold it
    in place as others have just left it and it will tilt forward..
    Hope this helps

    I got the car back today and of
    course it had to snow..
    but i did grab a few shots before sticking it in storage
    and i made some side corner covers also out of C/F
    over lay..
    Instead of trying to line up the flames i had the guy
    paint the front end and the hood the same color as the Ghost
    flames to blend it all in .. i think it turned out great..


    The side corner done witha C/F over lay and a cut out..


    What do you think ?
