I did photo shop of how i wanted my tail lights to look. Completely red-out the tail lights then a light smoke to the lens. Then i wanted to wrap them in carbon fiber vinyl for the finishing project. Heres a pic --->>>

I like it .................keep posting pictures boys. Speaking of winter....and Unc will attest to this. My car hardly gets dirty .... and I rarely need to wash it here in the winters of the desert. Oh sure we do need to go after if with the California duster and some spray detailer. Oh and rust....whats that, rotting carpet....never.

The last two S-Cars. OPen the picture then click it again so it opens cleaner.

Too bad the SCs dont have a trunk without the reflector. What I wanna do is go get another trunk without the reflector and respray it. Then do red pin striped where the reflector should be and crosshatch some dark red metallic paint in the lines. Reflector look without the relector, and alot less rattling from the sub.
