^^^ you can have ACK make em....but i personally feel its tooo expensive.....
you pay $150-175 for the OEM set of tails and another 150 for labor and another 50 for shipping....$350 is definitely more that what I would like to spend on a set of tails....

I've been itching to simplify the car recently. Not sure why.
The only reason why I haven't is because I'm lazy. I don't feel like taking off the rear bumper and all of that crap.
Trade them for the house!
Can those tail lights be bought somewhere? I know Ack, and now Fulani has a TL do tail light work, but I definitely wouldn't be able take mine off and have them shipped to be blacked out. I've looked on ebay, but the smoked ones have the frosted diffusers smoked too which I don't like.
Copied from the thread I created yesterday:

Anil, your math is a little off. I gave him my stock Type S tails and he gave me modded tails for $197. If I had to do it over again I would have just bought the ones from USR or grew some balls and do them myself (with your help of course
) And I think you know the reason why I wouldn't do it again.

Ever consider a trunk or roof lip spoiler?

Trunk spoiler, yes. I want the OEM 04-06 one but it's stupid expensive. Roof spoiler, no.
I like how the top of the car is interrupted from front to back. I feel like the roof spoiler would break that up "flow".

My trunk spoiler is back on...I missed it too much.
Why was Thanksgiving sucky, Ty?
Great rolling shot...looks like your rear camber is actually more corrected than front.
About the tails, I agree...it's overwhelming...I even gave up on it round 1...by I was SUPER proud to have tackled it on my 2nd go.

When the hell are you going to buy a good camera? You take more pictures than I do

Thanksgiving sucked because my parents and I are the only ones who don't live in FL and we didn't have enough time to make a trip down there. Therefore it was just the 3 of us, meaning mom didn't cook much. It was just like a regular meal
Plus my mom and I butt heads a lot so that's not fun either.
You are correct about the camber! I have the Ingalls camber kit in the rear but nothing up front, resulting in me running about -1.1 in the rear and -1.8 up front.
Those tails kicked my ass. SO many parts once fully disassembled.
Ah, nice catch! Posting at 1am while watching Boardwalk Empire isn't a smart move
And thank you
I was wondering what Eric was doing when he kept slowing down. I was like wtf speed up

What I told him 
The one I want Sony DSC‑HX30V takes much better shots than this.
He said he will get a DSLR

Yeah, but Ashton condones this one. And he's got that rockin bod. So buy the camera he says!
Tyler,
thanks man...I agree, I think it has to do with being low enough and the rear wheels being wide enough to pull off the wing spoiler...on a stock height car it looks a little too pronounced.
About thanksgiving...
well, how about this? Divorced Mom and Dad...so I spend the day rushing to leave Dad's, so he's pissed, then get to Mom's late and she's pissed. Then we have to squeeze Betty's parent's house in too...(lucky they're still together!). It's a day of disappointment and hurt feelings...in a way I kinda wish I could stay in one place, get my buzz on and just chill.
Maybe next year suggest that you make it a bigger deal, maybe invite some close friends (some penguin hos?) and then google how to make a turkey and wow your Mom by doing it yourself.!

But I know what Ty is talking about, he is right
That's was the reason why I first used the lip
But A-Spec at least fills the gap and makes the wing look good
Same with my splash guards, from a distance rear sits straigt from the sides...
help wing to look good a little
With stock look, still flows nicely with the bumper's shape

Glad to see my thread continues on without me
All of my family is in FL and since we will be down in there in about 3 weeks, we weren't going to drive down for Thanksgiving.
MEKO I don't mind the spoiler on your car. I would prefer if you didn't have it but I also realize you didn't purposely add it to your car tomato:
Time to ditch those mudflaps and get moar A-Spec!
