Thanks guys!

Bill, Yeah, they were called the Allure in Canada (until the most recent models) because "LaCrosse" is a less appealing name in Quebec slang.


Little update:

Got some 6000k HID bulbs. Surprisingly, there isn't nearly as much glare as I was expecting. There isn't a whole lot more than the Sylvania bulbs they replaced. It looks much worse in the picture, but my phone sucks at taking pictures at night.

Thanks! The alignment is fine, it was just a combination of my phone camera and the car wasn't close to level on the ground.

I washed it today. Got all the old salt off. It'* dirty again of course, but at least I got the heavy crap off.

I like the first pic best as it has the best lighting & color, and still shows the hood line well.
