It's a little refreshing what the final turnout was after struggling with moisture and fitment problems... took me about 2 weeks (a couple hours a day after work) to get them right... I almost gave up, as i've done headlight mods before (on my old SE-R and S14) but I never ran into problems. Maybe the summer heat made it more of a headache than it really was LOL

Looks just right. Blacking out that side plastic area makes all the difference, and I don't see any over gluing! Are you going to put up a DIY for this w/pics?? (I know OLT has one, but I'd enjoy one relating to the new clear lenses*)

Is that the OEM Lense you use raine? Perfect sanding?
