MD 5/16 spacer & fog light install!!!

Hey guys, after a lot of research I have decided to install the MD spacer. I just got the spacer in and am currently installing piaa 1000 fog lights behind my grill. I think I will be installing the spacer myself because I was quoted $200.00 for the install. I think the guy thought I was a fool. I was going to have him do it if it was like around $20 to $40 bucks. Anyway I will be installing it this weekend if weather permits. I will post pics of my new fog light and let you guys know how the spacer feels. I hope I get the same effects as everyone else in the forum. I am thinking if I should of gotten the 1/2 inch spacer.

Anyone in So, Cal have a torque wrench I can barrow? I can seem to find them anywhere. Only web orders and they cost like $70-$90 bucks.

Ya, just do it yourself. If your good you could probably do it in less than an hour. Btw, you don't have to have a torque wrench to install. Just do it so it's tight, but not too tight.

Can we see some pics of the fogs after they're installed?
