ok here's a mingo perception of how he likes his max. it has a raised wing, smoked brake led, no oogly, molded on stillen kit, dual tips, and.. oops its actually kev's car. but the clear tails weren't made by me.

please dont' tell me to make anything else. this was for my own curiosity. i dont' have photoshop so i did it all by hand using the janky paint program. but i'ma try to smoke out the circles in the tail lights. muhahaha.

Add on two more lights

Hi Mingo, since you're good with painting tricks try this,
remember the big Lexus, at the trunk lid they have a small light between tail light and the license plate. I cut a red oval shape paper and stick it with double sided tape on that area between the tail light and the license plate just to see how it looks, it doesn't look bad, Imagine a well desingn plastic molded add on with brake lights etc, maybe oval or even round circle, I think it looks cool, try it.
Try to add it to Kevin's Max and send it to us!

sorry no lexus lights. i think it's ugly.. but here's another job i just did on kev's car. i shaved the border around the L plate, altered the kit to what i like better adn cleared out the orange bulb using the stock tail which imo looks good as is.

Adidas won the contest !

Hey Adidas, you won the contest, cool looking rear lights,
if someone makes one like those that Ill be the first one to put them. The factory rears sucks, even in the magazines they mention the funny looking tails. My car is Sherwood Green and they are even worst. This is the first car that I have that felt the "morning after" feeling with the rears, even my wife said that she cant understand how I bought such a funny looking car at the rear.
