All I did was use a razor to cut the glue an a screw driver to spread it apart took me about40 minutes to get to the painting part, it was simple!!!!!!!!

What kind of paint are you using? I would like a glossy look. I haven't put them together yet so I still have time to change.

When I cleared my headlights, I used a razor blade to get the glue apart and a screw driver to spread it completely apart and just used silicon to seal it up, didn't bake it or anything. Leak free for a year and a half.

Whats with the fuzzy pictues?

id go wit oem, looks cleaner IMO, kaminari is nice too tho i guess its just a personal preference, do what you think looks best.. little things u can do to make it look alot better wud be sidemarkers, yellow lamin-x.. but that all depends on the look your going for.

good job on the lights and lip. i think some different rims would flow better with the car. they just look to aggresive for the rest of it imo.

but hell wheels arent cheap so do what YOU like. you will be more satisfied

Looks good. When I did mine I used NHBP paint and a clear coat. Matches the car perfectly. Keep up the good work.

looks great man! IMO, a OEM style sides and rear would probibly flow well w/ that lip, the the other style lip would look sweet too! Just a sugestion, you might want to look into tinting your tails too, then you will have all black, very hot IMO! keep up the good work!
