I love it especially on those color cars. It just looks that much better with those two color combos.

I'd make sure that's what you want before you put it on. I just spent about 8 hours taking my tails BACK to stock. Sounds like a lot of fun huh?

MUAH! <3
Thank you, to my girlfriend who hacked my LS1tech account!

I already did the side markers and third brake light. Maybe someday I'll do the tails too. Never the reverse lights though.
