installed headlight armor
hello friends, here it is Sept 2010, i decided to install the headlight armor, i had originally tinted my tail lights and they came out good, for a while, then they started to bubble a bit. so i installed the headlight armor kit. As of this day 10-30-10 its still looks perfect.
