Thats nice man! It will look better with the shine of the cover on it. BTW, that 4th gen looks like it has tinted turn signals in the first pic.

"Franken ram" ring a bell? What else is there? No NOS or noisy exhaust for me and the UDP is not worth voiding my warranty for.

Hmm? Do you mean parking lights? To clear them out do a search under "clear headlight" you should find my post on it. or go to www.VQpower.com under How2.

While the covers are off, get yourself some Sterling Mist paint and paint the rest of the tails.

Daul 4 inch Pilot tips . The stock ones are 2.5 inch.



Steve, I cut the tail lights apart with a dremel(only way possible), then popped out the reflectors and painted them with some translucent(S?) red spray paint. I am not worried about the cops, I got pulled over yesterday(testing out the franken ram, haha) and the cop did not care at all. Quote: cool car is that your moms. .



Weasel, I have a can of color matched silver spray paint. Do you think I should paint over the chrome rings too? I king of chiped some of the chrome off by accident..hmm..

If you're going to paint the chrome, make sure you prep it real well (sand, etc). Otherwise, paint's going to have a hard time sticking.
