Nice! Can't wait for this thing to get back on the road!

Got an email from ups today telling me that they will notify the shipper of their results by the end of the business day tomorrow so lets hope for the best.
Now, on to something more interesting. My lights came in
Unfortunately, usps was too rough with them so the reflector in one got knocked loose which totally sucks balls but Matt with his kick ass customer service is taking it back and will repair and reship asap. So another bump in the road but Matt is hooking it up.
Alright, now onto the good stuff. Once I get the bad one back and gets these installed, I'm going to have a full review in a separate thread so I won't get into details in here to much but right out the box, WOW. These things were jaw dropping, pictures do no justice.
The paint, the construction, the detail, the cleanliness, the everything, its ******* great. These could almost pass for factory projectors.
Even though I don't have to car to test them on, I had to get some cut off pics.
I can't ******* WAIT to get these on the car, these mothers are bright as HELL. This one light is brighter than my two lights combined, no joke.
Thanks for hooking me up Matt V (2thumbs)

I know its messed up but its true. The fragile stuff got extra care... yes I used to do it as well. Most of the people who did that job was fresh out of high school and so was I at that time. We figured what the hell they have insurance and it made our job that much more enjoyable if we heard crap shatter. lmao.
Well Manny just called me, UPS did not rule in our favor. They said it was shipper's fault for not properly packaging the trans which they will not cover. Nice to see what you pay for when insuring 
Manny however, was kind enough to split the cost of replacing the rod so I most likely will be dropping the trans off after work today, so they can get started bright and early Monday morning.

I must say these retro's are one of the best retro's I have seen on the forums! Good luck with the trans and hopefully you'll get the headlight back in the same condition it is sent from Matt's! lol.
Very interesting read about the fragile vs non-fragile marking! haha
