I know I need to change it. Forgot about it since I had to buy a transmission. I thought about adding a Racing Beat spoiler. I like the deck lid look better. maybe just me.

It would have been 900, but my friends shop did while he was repairing it from my wreck last year. I'll put up pics when I get home of the wreck.

Really clean look. Nicely done! I really like the color-matched lower body work in the rear.

My son picked them out. Probably going to paint them. My lights shine thru them. I just haven't been to motivated to remove them with the cold. Also hoping to 2tone the car after I get my spoiler and hood. Don't want to paint them twice.

The eyelids are actually a silver carbon fiber or kevlar to be more precise. I am definitely going to paint them when I get my spoiler and have it painted.

Hadn't added any pics to this in awhile. Here's a couple of updated ones. Sorry about the quality phone pics are never fab.
