I hear ya! I hate having to stop in the middle of a project because I forgot something. Better to make sure you have everything you need before you start.

Good luck with your project!!

Do what Weiboy said. That's exactly what I did. As far as the sealant. It comes in more of a "rope" than a tape form. I rolled mine a little thinnner than just layed it down in the groove where the original sealant was. Bake till soft (5-10 mins), apply housing cover and compress together as hard as you can, then tighten all the screws. I would bake it again for 5-10 compress again as hard as you can all the way around and tighten the screws again if they can go any more.

Sorry for no updates.

So I am doing the headlight modification this weekend. I wanted opinions on what color... I know I'm going to paint just the housing but not sure if I want to paint gloss or matte black considering my car is black with chrome grill and chrome factory wheels.

Let me know.
