Here is 2 more after installing spoiler last week.





On. I'm thinking of blacking out my lights and the side markers from vette mods are on my list. Thanks a bunch, your car is badass.

Drove the car yesterday and tried to take a few pics before pulling it back in. Crappy cell pics of lights when it is almost dark out.

Nice look, North... Hey, are your exhaust tips black or just dirty? Did you paint them or are they aftermarket? Details, man, details!!

I got a great break because of the amount of work I've given the shop and I consider the guys friends. Based on what I think they gave me in the way of a break I'd count on $200-$300.

Here is my single "afterburner" lighting on my tinted tails. I used to have the Eagle Eyes tails but fell in love with these at first sight!

The previous owner had tinted the side windows and smoked the tail lights on mine. Neither of those are allowed here, and after getting ticketed the first time for that, I decided to remove it all.

Many here will disagree, but I think the stock tail lights looks much better. When they were blacked out, they had no detail. Now they look more like jewels.
