Its an aluminum radiator. It's made by a company called CSL. I bought it straight from nva-av6.

Thanks. Nah I'm going to leave the housing black. I think it would be too much red. Were working on filling in those slots on the housing and make it one solid surface.

I kind of like the slots. It breaks it up a bit. Going with one flat piece of plastic might cheapen the look.

not done with the fogs yet but we decided to hook it all up for a test run last night. the kit came with cheap ebay ballast so as you can see the passenger side went out already lol. my buddy has an extra one laying around so were going to replace it as we finish the project. but i plan on replacing both of them with OEM quality ballast eventually. i meant to get a pic of the light projecting from the driver view but ill get one once i replace the ballast.

Im not sure if I like them. They look flush with the face of the bumper. I wouldve sunk them into the bumper more. The plastic work looks good though.

^agreed. i had mine flushed and didn't love it. sinking them should help with the "crossed eyed" effect. i was also thinking about changing the actual placement of the lamp on the kit itself.

we were thinking the same thing of sitting it further back but its just not practical because of the bumper support. we had to cut a small corner on both sides as it was to fit them. the beam on the lights shoot straight but we do at some point want to work on the angle of the lights. but overall i like them. i got tired of the fog inserts. i definitely think the front end of the cl was missing fog lights.

I meant to put vacuum sensor fixed not map sensor.

While it was on the dyno my tuner said everything seemed to be working fine. The only problem was the vacuum sensor wasn't reading.
