very common and needed mod. nice job.

also, you can shorten your front turn signals by taking out the spacers and getting some shorter bolts.

which paint? or did you powdercoat?

yea i was thinking about shortening up the turn signals too, but im going back to school, so money is ridiculously tight for a while

i had a guy paint it, i dont know what color, but i think he also baked it to get it to stick and harden up a bit

This mod costs about 25 cents  waytogo

It looks exactly how it is now, except an inch shorter.

The US market WideBoy front turn signals do look.... um.... wide with those spacers in there.  First pic of the stock coloured headlight bezel shows the Euro-sized narrower turn signals.
