Thanks! and if you look at page 4.. it basically shows you how i did it. inside the actual projector there is a "half circle" that you just pull out prep it and paint it what ever color you decide..

UPDATES: We have it almost done and ready! Fluids are in, fuel pump is in...Only a couple minor things left to do... put the intercooler piping on, wire up my new gauges, radiator hoses/fluid and put the battery in the trunk. I have a clear cam gear cover, Tomei manifold sheild, hks spark plug cover, and CF radiator shroud and dressup bolts also. I just didnt take them to the shop I will put all the goods on once i get it back home. the plan is to try and get the car started tonight . If not tomorrow, so wish me luck guys! Also will have my trunk, rear lip, hood, and front bumper painted by tuesday "I hope" because I can't do my 500 break in miles without the trunk and stuff on lol.

Here's a few pics.....
