I'm waiting for you to answer, so I can start this project now! Thank you!!

those parts can come off. Trust me, the hardest part o this project is taking the bumper off and getting the headlight unit out.

I hated the bright red tails. I think the tint puts the whole car in the same color family

I can definitely see how you would feel that way with the anthracite. The Rockblocker really gives it a stealth look. I do like the bright red against the silver, but after seeing Teh Jatt's pics, I am officially jealous.

You have a sweet ride, xtin. Customized, but not overdone.
