Default Black Grill Installed

Removing the chrome grill wasn't nearly as hard as I anticipated. Installed a black color matched grill and RVinyl tint on the lights, which is removable whenever I like.

Love the look, just need the lights covered on mine. I just installed IPCW turn signals on mine. Where did you get the light covers?

RVinyl.com. Don't get the blackout kit. This is the dark smoke kit. They have light smoke,dark, blackout, colors like blue , and custom kits with cutouts. Be careful with the stuff I have a crease in the passenger side because it was the first one I tried. You have to lay it on like you want it then start squeeging. Use a heat gun to basically heat shrink it to the light. Do not heat up a crease before you squeege it out or it will be permanent. I recommend using the rapid-tac and friction sleeve that they sell. Friction sleeve keeps it from scratching. I also plan on adding projectors in a couple of weeks. Next will be my ARB bumper.

Can you send me the link to the kit you got? and does it come on and off easy?

Oh no I have plenty of light. I still have a very considerable amount more than the stock halogens. These hids are ridiculously bright. That's why I plan to put in projectors also so I can cut the light off like it should be and not blind people with glare.
