lol yes i am very ****, not so much about this truck but still am. i am a perfectionist when it comes to my trucks.

the bumper being ripped was from a earlier wreck this winter, thats why i was not so concerned about the scratches as i'll be replacing the bumper with a new one.

i like the hidden look. plus the egg crate style grill of the expy allows less obstruction then the navigator. yours looks good though!

Thanks, they really put the light down the road. I have a pair of small driving lights behind the grill on my Mark VIII and they help a lot also. A pain to clean though.

haha yeah!

well since one of the bulbs was blown last night when i installed them i did not have any pics of them on. so now since i got a replacement bulb i'd throw some pics up. 2 100w driving/spot lights.

i plan on adding 2-4 more lights in the hole in the bumper..but later on.

that would reduce the light output. they are ment to be regular halogens used in combo with my HID highbeams. i need to do alittle aiming but they work very well.
