seriously bud.. you need new headlights...
GLARE galore there...
Glare = dangerous to people in front of you and oncoming traffic, thats what will get you tickets...
my lightning headlights with hids have no visible glare and have a visible cut offline...
(i have seen tyc and they are equally as good as LH's as well and have the exact internal design.)

I'd give it at least a week or two to dry (possibly even longer) before you even touch the bumper with water.

Here's a daytime shot that I got off with my friends camera. Shortly after I washed it (excluding the bumper, but it was soaked) but I'm going to hold out until next saturday before I wax it.
I'll be holding on the mods for a while, next up for me are new shocks all around for to renew my worn-out 10 yr old ones, then new tires, plus I need to save for flight training and insurance, but my next appearance mod will be LED Recon tails + CHMSL. Apart from that, I'll be looking around for chrome XLT mirrors and also planning a day to do my handles.

Thanks man, shes a real head-turner now!
I remember joining this site, but never knew how much it would end up deciding how my truck would look. This is a big transition phase for me, so now all the cheap mods are done, now I'm going into expensive stuff: tires, tonneau, possible 2" drop, etc. Time to start feeding the pig!
Edit: I realized I have 1/2 a can of Gloss Black Kyrlon and a s***load of sandpaper left so I'm trying to see if I can sand and paint my wiper cowls tomorrow. 10 years of Florida sun has had its toll

i wouldnt worry about the washing of it so much but you gotta wait longer than 10 days or whatever to wax it. i was told by my paint guy like 30 days if i remember right. paints gotta cure. think of it like concrete. if we pour a drive way, its hard enough to walk on next day heck sometimes same day. and could prolly support a vehicle the same week without marking. but we still wait the full 21 day curing time to drive on it. so basically lol wait 30 days before you wax it
