Daytime shots to come in a couple days. I still have some minor tweaking adjustments to make. I will also be back lighting it with some LEDs.

Looks awesome. Now I want one. Is the sport grill hard to swap for the non sport?

You will need to change the support bars behind the grille as the 99-01 Sport is taller. Also not sure if the grill would fit because of the different bumper.
For me changing to a regular 1 I just used where it mounted to the hood (as that part is the same) and zip tied around my support frame.

With a regular grille (notice the gap at the bottom of the grill)

I like it! On my to do list is to get a Rubber Frog grill for mine! And black headlights would set it off even more!

Droid Incredible 2 on the move!

Those are just the halos. \

I think I would do black, and then have the projector body color
