While continuing on with the massive winter detail on the car, I decided to go ahead and add the matte black 5.0 emblems I picked up from American Muscle. Install is very simple, except for the 3M residue, which can be a little bit of a pain in the ass to remove. Had to take a small break and go grab some 3M Adhesive Remover for the passenger side. Overall everything turned out good.

During the process:

Those LED's look great. Kind of makes me want to do the same.

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Yeah, they are a nice setup. The turns are exactly what I wanted. The fogs have a nice color to them but not the intensity that I wanted. May swap to HIDs. Overall quality wise though they are great.

Info on the LEDs:

From Ed @ SD Accessories

Turns: Type II Switchbacks (requires splicing)
Fogs: H11 LED (Direct replacement)

Found a good pic from fall as well...

Updated Running total on build as car sits above:

$7,109.36

Ordered some H11 HIDs tonight

The HID's are the best way to utilize these fogs. I installed 6k temp. A few folks have modded them as well on hidplanet, by modding the shields to get a better spread of light. You can also adjust the aim as well. They are refered to "Fusion" Fogs.

I ordered a 6,000K Slim ballast kit as well. I'll have to look into the stuff you mentioned above.

Updated total.... Now $7,209.32

Lol yeah. Mines actually less than I thought. But I like to to keep a running total, my cars are always for sale for the right price.

My Bullitt had over $30,000 invested into it, so I'm not doing to bad with this one.

Plus it gives people an idea of what it costs to do a similar style.

That's a good way of thinking about it!

Probably a dumb question, but the H11 HID's for the fogs.. are those a direct replacement?

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Not that I condone copying.... I would hope people would add there own style and twist to it to personalize it but we all know that doesn't happen lol

Thanks, I try to put a unique twist on the look to make it different. Copied from the boss grille surrounding that comes painted.

The LEDs were of great quality just not the intensity I wanted.

Probably a dumb question, but the H11 HID's for the fogs.. are those a direct replacement?

For the most part. Just runs through a ballast to amp up the light output. I recommend spending the extra cash on a slim ballast.
