^^ Thanks. They are approx. 15-18 bucks or so on ebay. If you get one,be sure to use electrical tape to cover the airbag/belt light lens before installing the engraved Performance plate - otherwise, some orange/red light will peek through.

I think I'd want the light shining through, accenting it.

It does not look good because one light is red, another is amber, only one is on at a time, so the colored light is completely uneven. ie. Always skewed to the right OR left. Trust me, it looks like a half a** job when the light comes through only one side. I was thinking the same thing as you, until my first ride at night.

Ah, I haven't seen ISS interior at night, so I didn't know. Sorry. Would've been cool though.

Heck yeah it does!
Looks good man,I'm in the process of painting the chrome pieces to.Did you primer first,then paint?I've been looking for a flexable primer,but no luck finding it.Do you have link for the Anzo headlights or I can just google.thanks
I will try to find them. I got mine off ebay.

Now that my friend, is a mean looking impala!
BigBlackBox - I love your car too. Nice job! It looks menacing. Maybe add the chrome/amber turn signal bulbs to it to get rid of the egg yoke look? Mine were $8.20 for the set off ebay. No burnout issues so far. In another thread, I provided the link to the ebay seller.
I have to replace my HIDs in my foglights, it would be the perfect time to slap some chrome bulbs in there.

Thank you gentlemen for the compliments

It is greatly appreciated, anyone who has ever taken off the chrome grille knows what a PITA it is. I managed to get both off without breaking a single clip or guide.

My plans are to murder it out. Unless I sell the spare set of ISS/MCSS wheels I have for sale in the Classified section.


Oh and OP sorry but,

Color matched bowtie overlays for your rims. NAIOA has them for under 10 bucks. I have silver to match my silver car. I really have this thing against the ugly bowtie gold and eliminated every gold bowtie on my car by color matching. (front and rear bowties replaced with Silver inserts from grafxwerks ($25.00 each) and four wheel bowties covered by overlays from NAIOA).

I installed the SS to the grill where the bowtie was and removed the bowtie from the rear. I also installed HID in low beams and fog lights plus some plasma glow LED's under headlight assy. To see them go to my montess album.
