Default Before & After pics
Well, I finally got around to doing the CETA mod today and I think my rear end is finally looking like I want it to, so I figured I'd show some pics of what it looked like when I bought it compared to now. Let me know what you think!

Before:


Now:

love it, it came out great. the CETA+tips+3rd brake light give the back end a much better, more aggressive look. i just did the ceta mod and got my exhaust done about a week ago so i know how good it feels to get it all done.

CETA was the last thing I did because I was on the fence about if I'd like it or not. I saw your pics in another thread and it made it an easy decision!

Yeah it was one of the last things I did also, but just because its my DD, and I was afraid of screwing it up, and having to live with it everyday

I just did the !door molding today, you should look into it. It's another easy appearance mod that makes it look cleaner

I actually did the drivers side molding at the same time as the CETA. I did the badges a long time ago. The passenger's side is gonna have to wait, My hands are covered in blisters from getting that damn glue off!

Get yourself a terry towel, and use the sewed edges as a buffer between your fingers and the glue, then use goo gone to get the rest off. Your thumbs will thank you

Looks pimp! Now tint and tint your taillights and you're rear will look perfect on a silver vehicle! I should know.

I still regret never tinting my taillights on the Firehawk, would have looked better!

I think the CETA mod is one of the best appearance mods you can do to a T/A. You guys that have done it, is it rattle can or are guys having it professionally done. I think it looks great.

Wink From Lovers!
Just thought I'd let you know that the lady bird is looking pretty sexy. Damn! She just needs some tint and maybe a new look, like a new hood. And she'll need some new shoes, I know some nice rims out there. It looks amazing and I can't wait to show her off again in Spring 2010!
MUAH! <3
