I really liked the vinyl finish, it was brushed gunmetal. I cleaned up my radio bezel really well, and got to work.
I'm glad I started with the radio bezel, as I found the fitment not the best. I used soapy water to seat the vinyl in place, and was really disappointed in the fitment. Needless to say, I stopped where I was at. I've actually requested a return from the vendor, which they quickly accepted through Amazon.
I'll just end up getting a maple bezel and being happy with that route.

Per a request in my LED/stock headlight assembly thread, some folks asked if I would put a halogen back in at least one side and get some comparison pics. I posted a bunch more in the thread, but here is one from about 25 feet out and 3ft high. About the desired height of the top of your beam, to not blind the car in front of you by hitting their side view mirrors. The LED is doing so much work, the halogen just looks "on".

Got sick of the chrome grill finally. I have been thinking about just taking it out and painting it, but for the effort and prep......I figured these were cheap enough to try. I've seen varied feedback on fitment, but I expect to need to modify them a little.

It'll be here next week.Did you order it? I'd really like to know the outcome. I was considering trading my stock chrome grill for someone's stock black one but I'd still have to paint the surround. And it'd still be a used and likely scratched or faded grille. Really not interested in cleaning, prepping and painting the chrome mesh of my stock one!
Whenever i have to change a bulb on mine i pull the bumper, ive had it off a few dozen times when I mounted my plow so its pretty fast for me. Yes Roger, i agree... id like to strangle that moron...Darren, I just replaced my DRL what a pain in the ass, who is the moron that designed that, he must of graduated at the bottom of his class, or he is taking kickbacks from flat rate technicians. Damm near had to remove the front bumper to get enough room to get my hand in there. I couldn't find a youtube video that covers that. My Caddy CTS isn't any better, must be the same dumbass engineer.
