        And with that being said... HEADLIGHTS are GO!!!

        Here are some pics of the Structural Adhesive after sanding it down:






        After sanding it down we need to smooth that puppy out, and what does that mean? Bondo:






        Now it is time to let that dry and I will sand it down after practice!!
        Then it is time for Paint!!

          Well, I wish I had a fool proof answer for you, but I don't. I still get a little bit of condensation inside now, even though spring is here and warmer weather is around. I'm thinking I might have to do each again this summer, again.

            What do you guys think...

            Should I paint the headlights right away??

            or

            Should I start doing the LED's first??

              go ahead and drill for your leds, that way you dont scratch up the paint, get everything ready to go in then paint.

              good work so far man

                      im not sure where you can get the halos, you can always make your own from curtain rod and leds. You heat up the road and bend it into a circle, then drill two holes on either end and insert your leds. Then to do the lights across the bottom just drill holes and insert the led, and tie them all together to a switch. Can't wait to see what you come up with. Good luck with it man.

                        I actually am going to do my own Halo's because $200 is ridiculous in my opinion!! I just gotta figure out how to make the Knight Rider electrical box... Might have to pay CinCity for that!!

                              I love my sun roof!! It gets looks all the time!! Plus when you get a girl in the car, they always go nuts!! Plus Star gazing is a lot warmer!!

                              As for rent... I am at college and that is what we call an "8-Plex" which is pretty much an on campus apartment so the reason it is vacant is because everyone else has gone back home!! I am still here because I am still in training because qualified the 4x800 and 3000m Steeplechase for the National Track meet in Marion Indiana!! (also qualified the 1500 [mile] but I am not running it)!! I think it is something like $1300 for the year tho... (not sure on the price, but I think it is kinda expensive, but it works great for me because I only have to walk ~ 1 Block to the track / were we meet for practice!) Plus I live is South Dakota, everything here would be considered "Vacant" to normal people!!
