XLDenali06's Build Thread

The impending storm earlier passed right over us, so I got the other fog light switched. Baby steps. Baby steps.

Forgot to mention, the other day I installed the Fleece Performance 6-high mod. Once I get my LED bar installed, I'm going to run it to the Fleece module so that the LED bar comes on with the high beams.

Noice. Love my fleece chip.
Black grille looks great.
Shouldn't have any texture to the plastidip tho, should be just as smooth as paint. Did you use plastidip brand ?

I think sometimes if you go too thick on the coats and don't let it dry fully before applying the next coat, you'll get a textured look to it. That happened with my rims.

Looking good!. How hard was it to swap fogs? Did you have to take the bumper off? The mounting bracket on my drivers side is broken and loose. So I need to order a new one but I've been putting it off because I don't know how hard the swap is.

I used the Plastidip brand, but probably did everything wrong that you can with the application. Lol. I've since watched some YouTube videos and am confident that my next try will go much better.

The fogs are super easy to swap. Just get up under the front end, unplug the harness plug from each light, and unscrew 3 bolts. Reverse the steps to install new ones ;-)

Was it you that bought the Vouke LED headlights? First the ones with the cooling fins and then the ones with the cooling fan? I'm thinking about getting some and wondering how you like them and if you recommend one of them over the other.

Yeah, I have the 5S 8k lumens in my low beams. And they are fantastic. They have the little copper braided cooling tassels and they fit perfect in my housings. I went with their G8 12k lumen setup for my highbeams. While I love the output of the 12k and the tone of light and pattern, they have the little cooling fans behind them which makes fitment PITA. As far as a I found, Vouke doesn't make the bulbs for the highbeams with the braided cooling tassels, they only make them with cooling fans. But that's my only complaint. Otherwise I love them.

I have the Vouke low beams as well and love them.
