Default Rear Fascia ?

Having owned my bone stock coupe for a year now, mods are something I'm slowly learning about. What is this rear fascia of which you speak? What part of the rear end actually changes? :o

Oh sorry . . . here are some examples. The rear fascia is the rear body panel that houses the tail lights and the license plate section. We like to call it, "The Big Butt".

That section of plastic that covers your entire big butt is the "rear facia" and it can be replaced with a custom one.

BTW, there's also a front facia.

Isn't that nice? You can also just have the bottom section painted black the part that is around the exhaust tips.
