Smile Ok...

alright, cool tails...need the sidemarkers to match...and take off those mis-matched splash guards. you'll need to take off those for the a-spec kit anyhow.

happy trails!

the hardest part is removing the bumper, and maybe fishing the wires into the new lenses..(it's not really that hard though) I had never removed the bumper and got both the tails and side markers done is about an hour or so. look in the garage for the DIY video of removing the rear bumper.

and too the OP looks good.. just need side markers.. the rears are way easy.

hopefully i can order my sidemarkers by next week. the rear sidemarkers looks pretty easy to install but i think the front might be a little tricky

Yeah i agree

I have the same year and color, and also was thinking about rear type-s lighting. After seeing these pictures i think i might pull the trigger.

Can you install the tails without removing the rear bumper?
