Haha! I did a pretty sweet (but short) 4 wheel drift this evening, lol. But it was only in first gear so it didn't last long. I cannot wait to do something with the suspension and tires. When it hooked up it didn't feel so good. And it is generally plagued with under-steer as I found out earlier today. I guess it's a combination of the crappy tires and small rear sway bar.

Looks good man. About the headlight's, what I would do is run a new bead of silicone around the whole light and let it dry then take a hair dryer and heat the lights up a lil to get all the water out.

I may run a bead all the way around like you said. I didn't the first time because I thought maybe if water was in there it would drain out the bottom. I did however heat them up a bit but probably not enough.
We drove up to Lexington and back (light rain most of the time) and they only fogged a little, on the inside corner again. I'm assuming because that is the coldest part (the low beam and corner seemed to clear it up) but I don't know. After it sits for a while it goes away.
The weather is supposed to be nicer for a few days so I'll keep an eye on them. If it doesn't get better or it get worse I'll pull them off and seal all the way around for sure.
I wish it was easier to take the headlights out though. I can do it fairly quick now but it is so much stuff to remove to get them! lol
