Absolutely Jonathan! Thank you guys for everything. I was so anxious to get all these lights installed. The headlights really change the entire look of the front of my car. That's what I wanted!

Thanks man!

We secured each end of the LED strips with clear silicone (it is white in color but dries clear). We stuck most of the LED down using the supplied 3M backing on the LED's, but we did not stick each end down, as that's the time to use the silicone. Then, we used tape similar to clear packing tape on top of it the full length to keep it secured until the silicone dried (it takes longer than most people think). However, the clear packing tape works pretty well, and I may just keep it there until it starts to fall off. It can only add extra assurance it stays put

I see some ColorShift Fogs in your near future, no?

The car is getting a completely different front end refresh in the next couple weeks, and I will no longer have fog lights like the original one's. I can't use the fog halos. However, the new bumper will look like nothing I've seen, and it will incorporate a carbon fiber and summit white paint theme that will be unique. Now, my grille LED's will show through the new fog light housings in the new bumper. The LED's that come with the new bumper are long and rectangular and run vertical, so those should contrast nicely.

VERY FLATTERING WORDS

thank you bro , as far as the 3m tape supplied with all of AAC LED's I must say is the weak point of their products, their LED's are TOP NOTCH thats for sure no doubt about that, but the tape they use is cheap, what I do with all my AAC products is I remove the tape it comes with and add 5-7lb double sided tape now THAT will for sure not come off, trust me
