I did away with my 8000k hid headlights and fog lights

I installed GTR Lighting led 9008/h13 and 9145/h10

So I have several things else to do, a body kit and paint job next, but everyone is 3 to 4 months before I can get it done



So I will be posting more pics as I get things done and installed

How is your progress?

 

[union pipewelder]

The tear down has begun, my hood and rear hatch have a lot of paint corrosion from being aluminum

 

[mjp2]

Are you replacing the hood and hatch or attempting to mitigate the corrosion and painting them?

Substantial overhaul going on. Always great to see someone make a vehicle exactly what they want it to be.

 

[8fords]

I admire your willingness to do this major project. Best of luck.

My plans along with the body shop is to tackle the corrosion and paint, there are new hoods u can buy, the rear hatch , I didn’t c to many of them, if I can get 5 plus year with this redo, I’m okay with that
