    Hi, looks good! can you take a more closed up shot and with the light off so I could see how the led strip looks when switched off? and, did you have to remove the reflector off the bumper to install or did you dremel it while the reflectors are on the bumper? Thanks

    Custom head light build

    Thanks Glock, I bought the DRL's from a local auto accessories shop. They are 6 led drl's that are super bright, also used as turn signal lights. the lens are smoked black which I really love coz its more stealthy.
