Technically; they are white with a pinkish-hue. Not red! The reason why I haven't posted a pic yet is because I just ordered new LEDs. (12 LEDs as opposed to my previous 4 LEDs.) I will take a pic once those are installed.
Thanks in advance. I've just installed the TYC taillights and they don't fit perfectly. There's a small gap between the taillights and the side of the car. I notice that with OEM tails, there's no gap at all.

Can you also take close-up shot of the TYC and the side of the car (either side is fine). I want to see how your TYC fit on your car. Maybe there's something wrong with my tails then. Thanks

^^Yeah, mine have a gap also. I've tried and tried to adjust them, but no dice. The last time I adjusted them I didn't see any water damage. That's a good thing! I'll see what I can do about pics. I have pics of the new LED 'reverse' lights on, but the brakes are on as well so the pics didn't turn out too good.

An hour ago, I tried to adjust it by pushing it in as hard as I could, but the gap's still there. I guess it's normal then. As long as there's no water damage, I'm happy . Thanks for your info.

Friday I installed (sort of ) the Polk db 6500s. Actually, I was pressed for time so I just swapped the 6.5s. For being my VERY FIRST speaker install I did pretty good. In order to complete the install, I'm going to have to fabricate brackets of some kind for the tweeters. Still lots of work to be done; installing tweeters and crossovers, installing rear comps (may just replace the speakers and call it a day), installing amp (still deciding on where to put it. Its HUGE!), all the wiring, etc. It'll be awhile before she's finished. The Polks sound really good compared to stock. More bass response and less treble. Which is the way I like it! Hopefully I'll get my rotors done very soon! It's been too damn cold here lately to do any installs! (down in the 20s at night. WTH?)

Did you need to get an alignment after you installed your rotors? And is it recommended to change the brake pad too?

^^No. I do not believe so. You can change the rotors AND the pads now, or change the rotors and do the pads later. Just depends on how much work you want to do. By changing both out at the same time you'd be 'killing 2 birds with one stone'. It's up to you.

Here's a couple of new pics...

New CF Eyelids



Speakers are installed, but you can't see them-hence no pics. I also installed the new Kenwood Sub. Not loud at all but fills the low end in quite well.
