Default New appearance mod

Well as much as the LS1 style taillights helped the look of the car I just always especially on the blue that the lights looked like two bug eyes back there, so with yesterday being as pretty as it was I did a small appearance mod.

Before of course



After, will get better pics come weekend of course

I've always liked that look. I have AVS blackouts that I have to take off during daylight driving because you can barely see the brakelights when direct sunlight is shining on them. It's fine at night but not in sunlight. Does the tint have the same problem?

The top of it is blacked out, but as dark as I have the tail's I figured I would leave some sign that I was stopping available.
