Which means you mod the fenders to fit the bumpers,
without any headlight adjustment.
i might be doing the same mod too.
Anything to look out?

I'm wondering did you get the lighting package headlights (bi-xenon) or the non lighting package ones (halogen)? I'm curious if they are interchangeable with the ones you are replacing, i assume no.
