Default Lsportline on 96LS Project

With some small alterations a Lsportline front bumper will fit a 96LS.

cant wait for you to finish that headlight project. you will open many doors for folks. I am thinking of just buying the same lights and seeing what could be done on the first gen LS

Looks good Mike.

A bunch of thoughts went through my mind in progress but I just didn't plan ahead on my bumper work. That and not raping the wallet kept me from having much more attempted.

I'm growing to dislike the headlights. They perform modestly but along side any newer Lexus, BMW, Porsche, Audi...it blows. Driving the coastal roads at night on Hwy 1 north of Hearst Castle it becomes pretty dark...

Where can I get the fogs?

******Also guys I have found a two part compound that can repair urethane and glue it back together also will bind fiberglass to urethane and never crack !!!!!!

Mike, a cheap way ( you only need 2 sockets 2 bulbs) is to move the fogs into the cornerlights and make the orginal fogs day light runners at 100% that way 6 lights run at once.
Just remember it still does not have a nice cut off line but you can see at night.....and if you like come to my place and we can do it for free.
