^ Wow, Tret, that's brave considering how much people here tend to dislike the hourglass / catfish grill. I must say, though, I think it looks better on the 1st Gen SC than it does on the current lineup! It flows better with the SC's smooth curves than with all the angry creases on every car of the last five years.

I need to do this for my car. What kind of bulbs did you use? Did you completely remove the white housing that has the diffuser for the bulbs?

Tret, that's going to look sick when you finish that bumper. It already looks good just fitted like that. WOW.

Replaced broken air vents and the wood on the air bag. The wood had a big chunk missing out the corner. These plastics are super fragile.
