Okay I know I'm being kind of vain but I really do not like the FWD's lower front reflectors and find it only tolerable on the Palladium only. Now that I'm leaning toward the Royal Blue over the Palladium, does anyone know if it is easy to remove that reflector to resemble the SH-AWD's front end?

I'm also finding that it's hard to find a SH-AWD in the SF Bay area, and if I opt for the SH-AWD I can't seem to find one in the color I want (Royal blue).

 

The front reflectors will pop right out, I have removed mine when I had my bumper off. As far as interchanging with the awd, I am not sure.

 

Do they come off without removing the bumper? What is exposed after they pop off and does it look okay without the reflectors?

Thanks for the input

 

Funny you mention this because I like the reflectors on the front of the FWD car a lot more than the open slots on the AWD car. Continues the theme of the rear reflectors and gives the car that aggressive, futuristic look.

 

yeah you can lay underneath the front bumper and try to get them off. No it doesnt look ok with out the reflectors, its a huge empty gap, plus wiring behind it.

 

Feel the exact same way

 

I think it depends on the color, for lighter colors (like palladium) the AWD opening looks out of place so FWD's reflectors look better. But since I'm leaning toward darker colors the reflectors clash too much....who knows, maybe I just need to look at it more and it'll grow on me.

I think I might just put the tint strips on since removing it completely is not a cosmetically practical option.

Thanks for all the inputs

 

i would like the FWD reflectors better if it all lit up with the blinker, but it doesn't.
