Thanks for the compliments guys!

Had those same headlight. Returned with full refund. moisture kept getting in like a SOB, even after sealing.

Does your rear sit lower then the front?

Nice upgrades! The only things I would consider changing are the front DRLs, perhaps look for some with black housings to match the blacked-housed headlights, although the ones you chose look great as is. Another thing i would do is color match paint the SLP grille. It looks a lot better than black, matches the rest of the car, and sort of g=does away with that "catfish" look.

Overall, the car looks amazing

I absolutely hate halo headlights, I think they should stay on honda's. But everything else looks great!

Great looking car, all it needs now are some nice polished/brushed aluminum wheels but I'm biased against both chrome and ZR1s haha
