Thumbs up My backside

What do you guys think? I've swapped in the 06-07 tails (thanks Pactin!) the half tint on them and LEDs all around. The turn signal is going red LED too. I'm trying to eliminate all the amber.

Looks good Paul! I'm happy with the swap on my end as well. Did you change your license plate?

Yup. If you're ever in the area, let me know if you need help. Should look better on your car since you don't have the "star badge" on the back.

Wow, it looks really evil! Very nice and makes me want to do mine sort of like that. My car is gray so I'd want to paint the inside reflector of the rears either black or dark gray (flat).

Was it a pain in the *** to take them apart to paint them? I don't want to tint then on the outside, I want to actually paint the silver reflector part on the inside of the lights.. The clear drives me crazy and this mod makes a HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE difference.

Your car looks really nice man, and those tails make it really nice to look at.

Thanks Daniel, I considered painting mine I actually cheated and used a tint overlay and I'm really happy with the way it came out. I got mine from a dude off of NASIOC, he custom makes them, and many others. Only thing I don't like is that I still have the chrome piece which is visible on the top, which is why I'm considering painting it.

I'm looking for some ideas about my front though, my front (diffusers I think?) the parts that stick down below the bumper are destroyed. I want a lip, but it'd look horrible because the paint is literally scratched off. I'm considering doing a 3" wide line black truck bedliner for durability.

I didn't want cash on top, the 04-05 style lights weren't exactly what I wanted, cause I'd seen the half tint 06-07 which I fell in love with.
