Headlight modification?

eastwest2300 · 08-22-2012, 06:21 PM

Have you checked lowes or home depot? I would think it'll be cheaper getting it in store rather than online, where you'd have to pay for shipping..it probably balances out.

Nope cuz I'm not the one getting it

Whoever gets it should make sure to get rubber butyl sealant, which is the same one that comes with the factory headlights.

Not I.

Welp, we stil have plenty of time to get everything together, no rush. I still havent gotten those bumper clips in the mail, I ordered them almost 2 weeks ago...wtf.

You bought them from China. That's why. International shipping takes forever.

Dude, I bought two other things from China, and they came around the same time, this last thing I bought, its been a while, it may come today or tomorrow though. I'll have to think twice before I make purchases from China.

They're always cheaper, but take a while to ship. If it's something you can afford to wait for, then it's usually a good deal. If it's something you need in a more timely manner, then you will have to look somewhere else.

Ah dude, thinking of usps, I bought lug nuts and a stillen license plate holder, and these guys delivered it to the wrong address, but the mail man doesnt remember which house he delivered it to, so it looks like I got screwed.
