I got my wheels and tires I have been wanted on and George completed the mods on my headlights so I will be easy to pick out of the crowd now.

You are not kidding that you could be picked out of a crowd. I actually like the lights quite a bit. You are probably going to get a bit of flack from forum members but at least you broke out of the "Norm". Good job

I know its not for everyone but I like em and its different, since I pulled the trigger on the fixed headlights I figured why not go all in. and when you turn on the regular lights the halos have no affect on how they function, it just has a light glow around them.

Thank you. What kind of tape and how much did you use. Did you use any on the sides? I got the fiber glass one so I'll have to prep and paint first.

I used the 3m tape, and only on the flat underside, the tips are tricky
