Default just changed my headlights, got a blacked out one
just changed my faded headlights , to blacked out ones, they look nice, i guess cleaner..man i had no idea its so much work...had take the front bumper out, front tires out..and under panels to get to screws ! phew i thought it was gona be a couple of hr job ..me and my boy worked on it took us around 5 hrs for the total..
first time i put it on , the auto leveling wasnt working right but everyting said and done looks good now i will post some pics soon, also picked up some iforged wheels black with chrome..so see how that looks with the white GS

First time removing headlights takes hours. It gets easier everytime after that. We need pics! I have black housing on my white GS but I'm getting bored of it.

Despite it taking longer that what you thought it would be, it's completed and it's what you wanted to look like. But post some pics to share with us
