Nice work!

Came out looking really good.

And for the corners, did you open up OEM's or did you succeed in opening some clears? Final's end this week and I'll have the time for some DIY this summer.

^^I had some aftermarket corners on there originally, but ordered a set of OEM corners to get the amber reflector and was planning on putting OEM corners back on but I completely demolished the clear lens trying to open them so just transferred the OEM reflector to the aftermarket corners.

Not sure if I like the LED's in the corners or not yet, but I can always disconnect.
