Well, I've had to change the part in my signature about the broken front end. Today I drove to my uncle's house and we took off the old bumper and replaced it with a new OEM one, and a Votex grill with driving lights.
The removal was really simple; the hard part being taking the side markers out without breaking the wiring harnesses. Installation was equally as easy, with the only mistake being my uncle disconnecting the battery with the keys in the ignition (hey, we needed music! ;) ). This resulted in the alarm going off, and me scrambling to get back outside to shut it off...
Light output was clearly increased. My dad was there, and said it reminded him of police spotlights. They're really that bright; the pics don't do them justice. I'm so happy. :D
#1- Before
#2- Day shot
#3- Low beams
#4- High beams/driving lights
This was the first step in a project over the next two years, which will include some exterior but mostly motor and suspension modifications. (VR6-T, coilovers, big brakes, blah blah blah.)
Hooray for doing it yourself! :D
