4xG Front Matrix... Complete. It actually wasn't that complicated at all - I found the instructions to be satisfactory. A few clarifications could be done in one spot but otherwise - It only took me 1.5 hours to do - What took me the most time was running back and fourth finding out that I didn't have all the hardware because I didn't have factory tow hooks - That was a bit pain. Oh and East Carolina Jeep is awful. (they know absolutely nothing). I started a pretty detailed and intricate write up but by the time I got halfway I realized how easy it was to actually install - the first 3 steps wasn't bad at all.

Nice AJ! You should paint the center Khaki like I did to match. It makes it look like it belongs a little more.
So are you ever going to swap out those headlamps?

Yeah, I wanted to swap the headlights while I was putting on the matrix but my oem's were all the way up stairs roughly 400 meters up hill then takran rlrvator and then dig them from under my bed.... I will have to take the matrix off yo put them back on.... Only thing ill probably do is disconnect my halo's and led's again as I got tired of them.... Again... Nathn do you know the specific paint brand and color you used to match?
Yep, Paint code PJC here:

Their clear is some good stuff too! You know while you are at it you should open up your headlamps and paint them to match

Thats a really REALLY good idea - Should I paint the OEM's or aftermarkets? I'll probably order these some time late next week - But I like this idea a lot. How do you open up the stock headlight units - is it true you have to put them in the oven to warm them up for a little bit - Or can you really just pop them open with a flathead?

I say paint the OEM ones and them put them back on the Jeep. To open them you DO have to heat them up.

For how long and at what temperature - if you know? I'll probably do a write-up on it.
\I still have to do the write-up for the 4xG Matrix - But it will fully complete that on Tuesday though - I need to backtrack on something to clarify something. Then I'll submit it for you guys to review and make suggestions to make sure it's thorough.
