the blackouts really make the 3rd brake light stand out, any plans to black that out?

very clean looking back though.

and to answer some ???'s about why exactly the blackouts are on, I got the car with a faded driver's side tail light, i dont have a buffer so polishing goes out the window, and i didnt want to spend 75-100 on a new one. Plus i like the look of 'em!

mistacamawo: ive been looking into vht-ing the third light but havent found anyone who's done it, and im not about to do it w/o any researching!

driver's side tip is fixed btw.

I just polished my center piece and did the exact same bird and lettering in chrome a month or so ago, I love the way it looks. Good choice!

I'll have pics up once the weather gets warmer and I get a chance to do my usual spring detail .
