Looking at your pics though, it looks like you have a rather big gap between your hood and bumper, is that something you can adjust? the gap on my car is just as big and i can't adjust it down, i can adjust the right side lower, but the left side is as low as it will go. it almost looks like my hood is popped all the time becaues the gap is so big.

Anyone know if we can do the eyelids thing in canada? becuase we have to have DRL's and the eyelids cover those up, would we have to make some sort of alternate setup to make different drl's, like maybe using the foglights or an led strip instead? or is it no big deal and just cover em up?
The eyelids definitely do not cover the drls, they cover the parking light, but not the drl. The DRL is the high beam, running at low voltage.

exactly what I said. (in my head)

the grill / eyelids look really nice, actually makes me kind of like the burger and mustache. it adds a nice contrast with your headlights and fogs to the darkness of your car.

Liking the look of your headlights, it looks really sharp with the eyelids and no amber turn signal bulb so the whole headlight looks silver. i couldn't figure out why it looked so different at first then after a closer look i realized you changed the turn signal bulb

Did you tell him you dont install stuff, just drive to surmans house and watch him do it?

Does it create a gap along the line where the bumper meets the fender?

Surman didnt do it himself, we did it together, you can ask him too :P

And yeah, I guess its easier to install these with the Stillen fascia rather than the stock bumper. It took us a couple of tries and some force to put the bumper back on, and its a little off with the fenders. We should of probably tried more fitments before sticking the LEDs onto the headlights, but we were racing against time, so whatever... Its only something I would notice, its virtually unnoticable from a distance.

the grille has been out for a while, Sith showed it to me at one of the NY meets. Eyelids are from ebay, but yeah i first saw em on LBC's car at a meet heh.

As far as the LEDs, its a matter of luck mounting them, and even when u mount em right it takes a lot of force to put the bumper back on right.

Those are pretty sweet. The lights really look good on the car. You said you wired them to work as DRL?

Also how noticable is the gap that the LED's created with your bumper?
