Is this a good deal?
I won an auction on ebay this morning for a front pasenger side OEM headlight assy for $33.00, $41.00 including shipping and insurance. Who got the better end of the deal?

Didn't do this mod, but bought the lights. I'm also new to DIY's. Have done a couple - tails, bumper lights (smoked, only until i get a new amber lense 
) and Type-R Grill. My advice: take your time and don't rush. Getting the front bumper off - take out front bumper lights, you'll see 4 bolts, get a 12 mm bit on a socket wrench with an extension on it. Use it like its a screw driving, so that you can twist it with your hands. Use pliars to get a good grip to turn it. You then got 2 screws on the front of the wheel well holding the bumper on. You should see them. It should come off when you take it as one piece which is easier than taking out all the little clips to just take off the bumper cover and the bumper separate. Once thats done, I'm pretty sure that parts done. Then just follow cryogen's directions and when mounting the bumper back on, push it up as high as possible and then bolt the bumper bults back on. Good luck and take your time
