Ooooh, that's a unique approach! Sadly couldn't get the videos to load properly in Photobucket so I couldn't see them in action.

Same behavior of the videos going white here too. Maybe Youtube?

Whoa! wait, which headlamp buckets are those? I'm amazed how well that actually seems to fit with the shape of the fenders... not feeling the Jeep grille though. Might I suggest something like the Group B rally car? :) (i.e. no grill and just a bezel)

The buckets are also for a toyota truck,the fit is close but not perfect theres some trimming and mods to make them work but so far so good. Yeah iam looking into other grill options or modding the truck grill i might cur the center section out and just put some black mesh in.
