Yea i live in NC,, I have been to moorsville servral times a year I know what u need. LIGHT...LOL I live in the city so its eally not that important. Like I said its decent. BUT ill tell you that the high beams give off alot of light..

As far as the reflector goes, in that one pic it stands out but over all I had to look a few times,, I thought it may have come out..
Food for thought, fine a reflector that is big enough and cut it to replace that one. A clear one would work there as well. I thought about doing that but I didnt feel like waiting. I could pull the orange off due to the color of the car. But if you leave it chrome, then that would looke better.

I think it's the shade on the lens that makes the orange reflector stick out like that.

Looks nice man you made those look real good on your ride. A good way to fix that dip on the passenger side bumper by the amber corners is extending a piece of abs plastic off the bumper support and using styrophome to build the area up. I had that same dip must be the mold. Thats just how i did it i'm sure there are many ways.

Those look sweet man. Nice work! I kinda think it would look better without the orance reflector but... thats really the only thing that looks odd. Maybe some of the lenses from the other lights with the clear corner reflectors would look good on them. Like a hybrid. I'm sure there are lots of things you could do with them. Like you said they come apart easy and are easy to change which is a good thing. Overall I'd say a 100% improvement.

If you have the stock lens cover or the the clear lens cover, you could pull that part out and put the stock or the clear corner lens cover over that and it will cover it. I thought about doing that but then I backed off.

Already ahead of you. I made another mold for the bumper. I took the foam that was there and extented it out futher. I just have not put it in yet.

Ill have HID in them by the end of the week. I made some calls and im hainve 3 diffrent bulbs coming in. 1 of the bulbs is H3 HID bulb that is almost the same size. So by the ends week, we shall see what the light output with HID will be like..

I got the bulbs but way to busy to put them in. Getting my car ready for Atco in November. I have things to worry about right now besides the HID. I will try to get them in ASAP.

No problems at all. The trick to the fitman is to take the OEM adjusters and use them. Let me guess the right side is giving you a fitment problem?

Make sure that the high beams are not on..
If you ahve any problems hit me up in pm and ill give you my cell number.. easier and faster to talk rather to type
