Actually, it took me a couple secs to figure out what you were talking about. Very Subtle change but looks great.

Yeah Tim.... Lets get the lights going.... I'm sure if you could get the same thing you got on your car for sale on your website you'd pick up a ton of orders. I know I'd order them and the Inspire switch.

Sorry Snook, I don't think it looks good. IMO, you should paint it black again. It'll look more classy.

Belive me I tried, its just not possible. The lights are from Japan, and it took me about 40 hours to install them! Had to Re shaping the light, making a braket and cutting the frame...

Thanks for the comments all. I think I will leave it, majority rules

Hey Snook, I like the way it looks and by the way did you mold the front bottom lip with the front bumper into one piece? 'cause I can't see any gaps in between the two. I have the factory underbody kit on my TL and there are lots of gap showing between the front bottom lip and the front bumper. I took it back to my dealer and they supposely they fixed it, but it still look the same. The two side skirts and back is ok though.

That is just plain sweet dude, way way sweet. Well, maybe in the next few months something will turn up. Do you have any night pics with them on? I'm thinking you might have convinced me to try it myself.... Not sure, gonna have to think, but I must say the results look sweet!

Phat ride Snook dogg !!! If your car is black you don't have to paint anything ... Hey, who agrees with me, doesn't the gold emblem kit look kind of cheap though? No offense to Street, you have a phat car and all, I just would like it if your $hit was chrome, but thats what makes you different... If you were sittin on triple gold D's, we would have a different story though, wouldn't we ???
