I did mine last year. The headlights have been fine, a few weeks ago one of my 06 corners blew off. So I got a new one from Ford for freakin 40 bucks, and made sure I glued it good. Two days later some douche hit me breaking the new corner. I got clear corners off ebay on Friday and installed them yesterday. So far so good.

She ordered a set of aftermarket black headlights so I don't think she needs it anymore.
