Beautiful car! I wanna say "very cool" about the lights but I think my dislike for every other altered lights I have seen may be holding me back.. I'd like to see some other pics to help.. Great job though!

Thanks Everyone.
Wer2xu, It was around new years when the pics outside were taken, if you look at the pic from above you can just see them unpainted ,and they are completely removable if I ever go back to pop-ups, so thats why they are not blended into the body. I think it looks better not blended, kinda breaks up the long nose some.
1nicecorvette, Thats just too funny! Great catch.
Parkerracing, Pleasant9 They are from the outside to middle- turn/parking, low beam, high beam.

Tell us how you REALLY feel! I dont care for them either. To each his own, however! I do like the paint and striping though!
I may have missed it, but what color red is that? I'm about 2 weeks away from paint and am looking at Torch for my 72. You picked a gorgeous red!!

I tend to like the popups that came with the car but you've done a sweet job fixing them the way you like. I appreciate your work.
Yeah, the rest of the car looks dynamite. I'm really fond of the Motion-style stripe (I'd copy those dimensions for mine) and your delicious red, the wheels, all of it!
Tease us with more of the front. Please. Hard Stylin', fer sure.

Paint is "Viper Red" from Southernpolyurethanes, I dont think they make bases anymore but should be the same as other Viper reds. White is Pure white, In the direct sun the car is hard to look at its that bright. Right now the trees are raining green so good pics are impossible. I keep it in the garage and wipe it down every couple days and the pollen is still covering it.
To answer a few questions:
They are fully adjustable
They are mounted to the bezels
The whole light assy comes out as one component
There are brackets that mount to the factory mounting positions
No holes drilled or pieces cut on the car itself
They are hella halogen projector low, hella halogen freeform highs
Dot compliant
They are run through relays like the fans
Thanks for the comments

I like em. 
I have been trying to come up with what to do to mine also. Those give it a C6 look (sort of). We do need more pics of the front of your car. Looks like a billet grill? I am sure you have some build pics you could share with us.
