No, there is a ledge on both sides that are perfect. Just tap one screw in there. It will be secure enough unless you go 4x4'ing.

Just saw the pics of your ride at 7stock. Looks great man, and the headlights look ten times better on your car then mine





btw... where did you get the rims? I thought you were going to roll in on stockers.

Just curious... do the headlights actually go down, or are they just in "show off" mode in all the pictures?

Jim, why even ask? You, as well as I do, know that he's nothing more than an attention *****. He *was* bragging about Glasurit paint, remember?

The headlights actually go down. I saw them, they're very nice even without a bezel. I'm sure he left them up to let everyone else see them up close, there were probably 5-10 others who wanted to buy those from Fumanchu (they're Waleed Al-Dasher's old lights).

Well, they look better than the stock rectangular lights. But with that hood, having them raised is just a little too much... um... visually speaking.
