I've been thinking about doing a third brake light like that for a while, like my mom's TL... but you have like 5 brake lights man... A bit of over kill if you ask me... I was gonna add the one up top with LED's then remove the other, lower one... And I don't have the spoiler one.

I see the outerbanks sticker... Been to NC? I see the Jersey plate... so I don't think you live here?

But besides that I like it...

kill the pep boys fog lights. repaint your grill black, its starting to fade like mine did.


3rd brake light is an interesting idea. i think itd be better if you took out the break light at the bottom. that'd be slick. but i guess if someone hits you from behind when you're breaking they cant say anything

you got too much brakelight going on there my friend, I think it would look okay if you unplugged the OEM3rd brake light and you had the one you installed and the spoiler light... rest of the car looks good but it needs a drop! and if your foglights weren't blue they would look wayy cleaner!

So you went with the gold ones after all huh javed? They look great with the gold emblems. I'm really diggin the black/gold pittsburgh theme you got goin on there, but your car is begging for a drop, and I agree with zero you should get some clera fog lights. Interesting brake lights

Haha! That is a shlew of break lights there! You really pulled off the gold trim very nicely! I like! I defiantly recommend wet sanding your headlights, there just nasty. Tint it up too! Every black car NEEDS a tint!

btw, how did you get your 3rd break light to work with your spoiler light?

I love those wheels. That thing needs dropped though. Any interest in doing that?

I like the brake light, but not the LED strip in the car. And your headlights have some serious oxidation.

1. You have to kill one of those brake lights... 5 is just overkill haha
2. Drop, the rims look beautiful and a drop will really pull the car together
3. I like fogs, but get some clear ones to match your clear corners. I had a set of projector fogs - really small and black. The fit perfectly in the lower grille and could barely be seen during the day.

BTW, you blurred out your plate in all the pics except the first one... yes, it is legible.

It's looking good though man. Nice work.

thankx for all your inputs.....

so here is some clarification,

I drive approx. 110miles a day on the turnpike and in heavy rains these 18" babies throw a big misty cloud as I am crusing the pike so for me my visibility to other driver's is very critical and for my safety when i hit the brakes it better be out loud so even the sleepiest moron reacts......and thats why the 3rd brake light......

Fog light...actually i bought 3 sets of lights before I settled for these and even these are blown now with cracked lens and all, and now I finally got my hands on an OEM stanley ones .....so I will be installing them pretty soon....

The 3rd brake light I picked it up from ebay...juts do a search for LED brake light and it will show up pretty cheap also....

NO DROP for me though I like the OEM clearance as I don't want to deal with scraping issues....

wet sanding the headlights is one of the pending projects that I have to deal with......

for the grill I am really bending towards what "mcajka" did when he painted his grill gold might ship my grill to him as he offered to do mine as well.....but before I do that I have one more idea that I would like to try ....hopefully that will be soon as well...

As for NC...I love the outer banks...did my hanggliding course there on the dunes....love that place....have been there like 3 times already and will visit again soon....

and blackack...thanks for all the clarification on the OEM fog install's will have the PIAA bulbs that I bought from you.....lol....and yes I do have cross drilled and slotted rotors over all......but to be honest I don't like the way they are holding up....the pads have already dug into them and from the way they look they might last another 10000miles tops.....and come to think of it I guess I am loosing quite a bit of the brake pad bite area which is increasing my stopping distance......


'Starboy' well I like this and that is the reason why I chose that tag line as it looks like a jhatt from Ludhiana...well actually I am from Mumbai formely knowen as Bombay.....so you see I am not from sardar from Punjab.......


Thankx for all the critique......just love it....

if you do a slight drop like on sportlines and tokico blues you'll still be lower than you are now with no scraping issues
