I've heard from owners there were paint quality issues . But I've not heard of anyone who has actually put one in a car yet.

So I am curiuos , as I have a possibile job where I may need one this winter.

OK, as promised I installed mine tonight. Start to finish, getting tools, tools put away and all, 25 minutes. It bolted right into place. I used most of my original hardware although I did buy the $25 install kit (it was dead on). 2 minor issues, the stainless on the headlight bezels extends too far over the beveled area on the stainless on the center section where it overlaps. No big deal, remove 1/16" off the 4 ends on your bezels and your good (the beveled area isn't as deep on the center, but just take it off the bezels) Second, the color of the argent was off a little between the bezels and the center section under the fluorescence lights but fine in the sun.
