A couple of updates. Got the retrofit headlights (courtesy of @r18-power) installed. Also installed torque solutions exhaust hangers and finally eliminated that annoying rattle for good! I'm in love all over again.

Since you already know how to open up your headlights @bauer311 , you could do a hid projector retrofit yourself for about $300. Not much more needs to be done.
That's true. I gotta watch the video on here to see if I gotta shave anything for the retro out if it depends on which shroud I get...

Good plan. My retrofit went really well after my second attempt lol. The first shrouds I had pushed against the lens, throwing off the projectors aim. When I switched to the mini gatlings they went in no problem.

If you get a mini projector and shroud then it all goes in real easy without having to trim or shave down anything.

That's a nice looking tool bag you got there @ron v. What brand is it? Can't quite make it out.

I have a random question for ya, by removing that plastic shield under the rear bumper, are you able to get access to the bumper-mounted reflectors? I've been wanted to put LED's in them for the longest time but I want to avoid removing the whole bumper and run the risk of breaking some of the tabs.

And actually I retract my previous statement. It wasn't hard to install at all. Just sucks doing this on ur back. Shoulda use my uncles lift. Would've taken way less time.

U should've asked me that like 10 minute earlier. But I don't think so. At least on the muffler side.

a buddy of mine took it off me without the relocation. Don't know what he has planned. Plus it's way cheaper without.
