You'll like them, they'll add a touch of contrast that's often needed.

I like the way they look on mine.

Good luck!

Was it a pain to take apart the headlights to put those bezels in?

It wasn't that bad just have to take your time. I replace the lenses and bezels at the same time. The instructions that he sent with the lenses were pretty clear he gives you step-by-step instructions.

I agree, it is a nice contrast. Is there any concern about potential water leakage?

I use the recommended adhesive and let it dry for 24 hours then I went back over the seams with a clear silicone just to make sure.
