Led Taillights

We didn't want to use the OEM tailight housing....it has a chrome edge and kinda sticks out. Kurt installed LED lights and then closed up the opening. We plan on taking the center chrome edge off and buffing the lip out then blacking out the lights...pretty common mod on these vettes but surely makes a big difference.

Front-end Mods- closed eyebrows, led driving lights

Closed out the eyebrows which also is a common mod. I love the LED "eyes" of the current model Audi's and wanted to do the same thing underneath the front bumpers before we closed out the eyebrows. We shaped some Q7 driving lights and were about to fiberglass them in when a friend found some already manufactured LED lights from Germany....they are about perfect. Only problem is the lights are so bright you can't really see the "eyes".

Kurt finished the fiberglass edge this week but I don't have updated pics. Anyone have a guess on where the exhaust tips came from? It an OEM piece from a current model car. It fits absolutely perfect. I'm thrilled....didn't want round tips and wanted a long oval tip that looks right with the body.

Very nice of you to use Jason's logo for the exhaust tip design!!! :rofl: :rofl: He'll have to like that....
