i agree the price is a little steep but to be honest that tint spray look like ish even if its done right you can still see blemishes and errors in the light these ones are painted the right way...overlays usually dont go one perfect and i have like OCD with my car things have to be perfect or it annoys the shiz out of me haha i dunno i may just end up getting a set of led tails but i kinda like the color matched tyc's that my xB has now

Ive been having trouble deciding what to get my gf and mom and dad for christmas but i think i got it! I think im gonna get them all portable GPS systems for their cars cause they always are getting lost. they have them on sale for 150 with a 40 dollar mail and rebate so 110 aint bad at all

yeah, you can change the button colors on the d3.

carefull when you buy them over the internet. you most likely will run into warranty problems if you need to use it.
