I didn't wanna hassle with it myself so I had BlackFlameCustoms install mine for me. The only issue that arose was the fact that I have auto-on headlamps so the wiring was a little different, otherwise everything went well.

I went all chrome for an OEM look. It looks nice and clean and once I get my stealth corner bulbs the front end will be complete.

I'll upload a video later on tonight.

Thanks you too! Isn't it great, now I light up the road for other drivers too. They're that bright! The high beams on the FX-Rs are insane.

6/24 I got my foglight piece from CourtesyParts Nissan. Installed it immediately.
6/28 I got my AX5 paint from automotivetouchup, sanded,primed, sprayed and cleared the front bumper. Rear will be done tomorrow.

Anyone know what the bulb type is for the turn signal? I'm gonna install Switchback LEDs and after numerous google searches I've got 3156, 7443 etc and I wanna know which one it is for sure.

Edit: 7443 it is.

Best place I've found for LED's has been V-LEDS.com. Great build quality and customer service. All of my exterior bulbs have been done through them, and I don't regret a single one.

Do we need resistors for the front turn signal?

Couldn't you just buy an electronic flasher unit for $20 and avoid resistors?
