Looks good... I dont suggest blacking out the reverse light and turn signals on a white car... The clear blends better, so if you black out the rear light you will have a Big black dot on your rear bumber... UNLESS of course thats what you are going for...

thanks for the feedback

i think im not gonna black out the reverse light thats a good point about the black dot but i blacked out the turn signal lights and it looks clean i'll get a pic up tonight so u can see what it looks like on white -

Nice... kinda wish i got a SW xB... The BSP is a b*tch to keep clean and every little scratch looks a million times worse... I am wondering what the side markers would look like with with some super bright white lights underneath the tinted lens...

Nice box! I wish I got white. Dark rims look clean on a white car. How you liking the ride of the Sportlines? I'm on NF210s right now but sometimes I want to go a little lower. I'm thinking of the TEIN H Techs or the sportlines. Honestly, do you have any scraping issues with driveways, dips, or speedbumps?

freakin sweet ride man, i just got my sportline springs installed along with hotchkis sway bars, and i love it. yours looks awsome, i tinted my turn signals but ended up going too dark with the tint so you cant see the blinker thru it, so i figured i would remedy the situation by getting super bright led's in there and that didnt help...i went way to dark, id like to see pics of yours if you dont mind. thanks a lot. tinted blinkers before the drop.

im runnin 18x8's and yes i rub on the fronts when i hit a dip in the road but it has to be a decent size dip - i dont scrape on anything not even driveways or speed bumps u just gotta go slow, real slow but that doesnt bother me just the person behind me haha. i'll get pics up tonight for sure of the tinted blinkers.

i have 3 coats on my brake lights so thought i'd do 3 on my turn signals and yeah thats to dark u cant see the blinker anymore but it looks better black so i can sacrifice the blinker. def. only put 1 if 2 coats on the blinkers any future people wanting to do this.
