I had originally wanted nhbp but after I saw how clean this one was I couldn't say no.

Never too cold or a bad time to upgrade interior lighting and such if that is on your mod list. Also the limited backing I do at night now is a lot easier with reverse and license plate lights.

Good luck modding.
just the pic bro, the Headlights are stock. It is sometimes hard to see backing up. What brand lights do you suggest? Is there a forum vendor that carries them?

If you want to stand out than get the blueish color..

I got my lights from v-leds I do believe.

Read this thread for LED lights.
https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-2004-2008-93/definitive-led-thread-all-youll-ever-need-know-about-leds-3g-garage-g-076-a-633045/

I wanna say I got the cree reverse lights but i did buy the brightest ones I could find at the time. Also got I think 5k license plate lights. The downfiring style and not the multi led ones. They light up the plate nice but also put light out for the camera. Helps with locating curbs right under the bumper.

bearcat94 you can afford the varrstoens they are cheap no more than $900 for some 18's! if you buy the real deal well then youre looking at $900 a rim and a 3 month wait lol

Yeah, varrstoens are definitely a great buy...but why arent you going with 19s? I understand what you said about 20s, but you skipped a size!

Yeah I think Imma try the Blue and if I dont like them much ill just have them Powder Coated Black. Cappy Yellow Fogs is a Good mod especially in HIDs. I think imma change mines tho, Im getting tired of seeing two different Colors on the road when i Drive. Imma go for 8k fogs to match my Headlights.
