i love it, but the reason im not happy with it, is that after 2-3 months they stop working,, now it only works manually and you have to press the button. other wise it doesnt move!

its a $140 dollars that i could use for something else...

i dont like the hide away plate because the motors dont last for crap, biggest waste of money i ever spent, car looks good but buddy i would be out there right now taking those headlights off to get ready to wet sand/buff n polish, killer looking ride just needs a lil detail work, nice work though

Thanks guys!

Bob, yeah man I say the same thing. That dam hide away plate lasted 2 months! It's just a waist of money.

The paint job needs a detail so bad. I wanna do it my self, I never done it before. So idk what do I need Or what brands are better to get it done!

I wanna get some silver ZR1 rims from oe wheels. Not sure when.
Also get some stock headlights and clear corner lights.

Looks good OP. Have you thought about having your tips powered to match the rest of the car? I personally think it would look good done like that.

Thanks guys! N thanks jarret! That makes ne feel I own a nice looking car!


I been thinking on painting the tips. I think will look good. But not sure yet. How easy is to remove the paint?

I wanted to make the antenna shorter, but since it's electric antenna. I rather leave it like that. Just delete it. But for that I have to paint the quarter panel.

I'm guessing your asking how easy it would be to remove the paint if you didn't like it? If that's the case then I would try whatever shade black you want but look into the high heat paint and my guess would be that if you didn't like it, it would be a matter of just wet sanding it off and then you could take it a step further and continue to wet sand it to polish it out since them tips are bad to get the carbon build up on them.
