Looks nice...don't forget the 3rd brake light since your tails are blacked out.

I left it that way because the red bird and Trans Am logo directly below it. I am in the process of having a new matte black bird/Trans Am logo done for me and then the 3rd brake light will get VHT'd

Looks sweet, how's the ride? I would love to lower my car but the potholes around my city are horrible, bumps everywhere.
