Default re-did tails, a little better
so i took today to redo my tails, wet sanded the **** outta them this time and still couldnt get them really shiny but its good enough for me. alot of people on here talk about excuse my car for being dirty and you cant see a spec of dust on it but for real excuse my car for its dirtyness check out my third brake light . going to get my windows tinted tuesday, 5% backs 20% fronts . will have more pics of the tails soon, just was proud of my third brake light i did. lol

You could send your tails to Flip to get 'em done right. All the ones I seen from him look outstanding.
