Vin #2256, AW, Tinted, Lowered, and Blacked Out
Blacked out the side markers this morning using RPI's kit. I had the dealership lower the car while it was getting the radio issues fixed. And I had it tinted the day after I picked it up. Needs a bath but oh well, I'm being lazy today.
Driving to Houston in two weeks and LMR will be installing the Kook's long tubes and their custom CAI on the car.

Sorry you had to wait on your baby to get everything lined out. You got the breathless excitement twice. Looks great
Just curious, does the black out impede the amber when lit or just subdue it?

You can still see the lights thru them. It just cuts down the brightness. During the day, with the lights off, they give it a very dark tinted appearance. Super easy to put on. Took me 10 minutes in the garage.

Thanks. That will be my next little thing. Already removed Corvette script from back. It was as easy as everyone said it would be.

I used the same. Looks great, good quality and all, but they seem to protrude a bit. I'd prefer it if the acrylic was about 1/2 it's current thickness. I almost wonder if I would have been better off to just have the tint shop do them when I have the windows done. It's likely that wouldn't hold up though, given the film would be exposed to the elements.
Either way, your car looks great.
