Cool Sort of a teaser...

1. Car is NASTY. Rain seems like it hasn't stopped in months.

2. My night pics suck, but the main thing was to show off the new LED bulbs on the license plate. They are NOT blue.. I tried everything possible to get these things to expose correctly, even used two different cameras and they still came out blue. The color is about 6k on the color chart, very white with just the slightest tint of blue, and super bright. Extremely similar to the new Lexus'.

If anyone else is looking for these types of "bulbs" go to v-leds.com


Notice anything else new?

The blackout is cool. You get gloss or matte?

Kidding? Flat.

BTW: Now I understand why you had some trouble with that blackout on your car.. The vinyl they use is like the thickness of tint, freakin' stupid. Good thing I was just planning on using this to see if I liked it and I'll have it painted at some point in the near future.

I am planning on getting it tinted some time soon, I have to take it to my glass shop first though so that they can adjust the windows.. The drivers side is noisy and the passenger side goes up about 1/8" too high.

Not a fan of those 'blue' lights. But I do love the blackout panel. It looks pretty good.

****, I thought that blackout panel would be thicker than tint. It looks like it is.

Nope, the blackout is about as thin as window tint, folds over onto itself easily. Tail light tint is like 5 times as thick.

haha! You don't like it Dave? I think it really sets the back of the car off well.

Also, believe me, the tag lights are not blue.. I tried every different mode that my camera had and even used Jessis' camera and I couldn't get the damn thing to come out right.

I'd much rather find someone to trade my FR's for some black Saleens. IF the FR's ever go black I'll have them powder coated matte black.

That looks perfect! Don't tint the tails! I love that contrast.
