I checked there i belive the side marker is the same on the xA and xB (not sure tho)

would work for sure. As far as headlights they just have the eyelids that iam thinking about and the "red out" kit for the rear. It looks good but i want the smoked look all around.

thanks for the link i found that shortly after my post. Still looking for a smoke headlight and tail light for the xA. Ive seen some pics with them but yet to see a link to them.

Thanks again Chip

I, too, would be interested in a link and a writeup on how to use the spray to smoke your taillights. This may be something worth doing in the spring.

if i can get a donor car i will smoke the tails and take lots of pics. lol i've done every car i currently own lol. u can use window tinting film if need be but i bought a product called NIGHT SHADES i picked it up for 7.99 a can and 1 can will do like 3 sets of tails . with the tint spray u just spray layer after layer until full coverage and desired darkness is acheived. it is a transluscent smoke colored spray paint. it is waxable if scratches develope. i have different amounts of tinting on different cars. check my supra cardomain and my scion car domain the supra's are a lil darker. my bmw cardomain also shows it's smoked tails and front signals.
