I don't take advise from some one that uses the term "FTL"
I want exports but don't feel like putting out more for tail lights then I did for a hood. LT1's look cleaner. I don't have any orange on the car.
Can't really lower the car with slp longtubes. I am thinking about getting 35% or a little higher on the side windows to avoid the fuzz and 20% on the back
