Nice build!!! Also you need to degrease and clean the engine to make it as nice as the rest of the car.

installed these clear housings with 9006 bulbs. replaced the h4352 sealed beams to try and get a little brighter. the lighting is more white than yellow now. oh and got around to replacing those cheap pilot driving lights with the original PIAA i was supposed to have received.
