He did an awesome job.

NICE wet-sanded it and re-blacked it out with vht while i was doing the tails.
thinking of getting the same decals and having them sprayed atomic then putting them on the center section then cleared on top of?

I'm sorry if I'm posting this is the wrong thread and/or i'm breaking some thread law but I'm needing some direction. I'd like to find someone who is adding the LED's to the front license plate and rear filler panel. I had contacted a person 3 weeks ago and he mentioned of doing this mod for me but after a few emails, I haven't heard a word back from him so I take it he's not interested.

Can anyone help me?

also did front and used led strips that you can get at the zone,etc.the front is easier because you can buy clear plate but rear you have to make.
