Ebay just got some new amber style corners and a one piece headlight with amber corners that look pretty good. Like your Sol also.

*sigh* another e-thug cursing someone out over the internet

SPE's comment was a little sarcastic but i caught the meaning of it, from wut i got it seems like he's trying to say that u didnt really do much, usualy when someone makes a thread that says "Makeover" usually its something big and more then 2 things changed like for example...rim, new paint, front lip, new seats...and u get the point

Looks good, I did this to my boys sol a year or so ago, make sure to clear them or the orange will fade.
