I like it! It makes it look semi custom. Your car didnt look that dark when I seen it in person yesterday though. Either way, I like it. Now you should just think about de-badging and taking that Murry crap off.

I think it looks cool. will look a lot better when i am done... And they aren't that dark, bad picture. And if your that worried about people hitting you, you should probably get some reflectors or something on the back.. Maybe i will do that?

You'd have to get a job first before thinking about driving a ferrari. Just kidding

Hey racer,
Try cutting out the clear sections where the turn signals and the reverse lights are (leave the trunk lights covered). I did the smoked tails and after I cut out the clear sections I liked it a lot more.

Everyone's an auto design critic.

If you like it, great. Personalize your car for you.

Would you seriously change anything that you have done because someone here said they didn't like it?

Dude, I don't see any difference than what I saw two weeks ago, other than the smoked tails. Same rims, same paint job. I thought you were changing the rims, doing a flat clear coat on the paint.
