Here is a video from a headlamp company that is custom making my Headlamps.. Seems like a really good guy to work with, and you couldnt believe the options available to personalize your headlights, I had no idea..

I am running a Clear lense with a smooth reflector, which is impossible to buy in the real world. I am also running a HALO around the projector portion of my light, but he does offer an Outer Perimeter HALO also. He has different light color and intensity ranges available (whitish, blueish, yellowish, redish,ect)

I found a bumper shop that can finish my bumper to Show Quality from the stage pictured below.. From what I have seen of this company's previous jobs, these will be a piece of cake. LOL I got the factory bumper brackets to work with the new bumper by adding the Volvo Mounting tabs to the inside of the Camaro Bumper.. So it will install just as the factory Volvo did, and it is very sturdy..

I also got my Clear Headlight lenses in, you can see why I ordered the custom headlamps.. I dont want it too look I have lenses place over a standard headlamp, so I really needed the custom headlamps with the clear lense and smooth reflector back. The actually fender lense will fit a bit more flush to the fender, I dont have the custom seals installed.

Here are some pics of the factory bumpers that were on this car, I actually have them tighter to the body than they are from the factory.. If my bumper is bulky, as others have stated, I am not sure what you call this... LOL
