Overall not bad man, good job. Only thing I dont like is the red lugs. Only other advice I'd give ya is lower it, tint the side marker on back and tint your windows. Then it'll be raw sex

Yea I know the feeling, I have 20% all around on mine and cops are dicks about it up here, I get pulled over all the time.

And it would look something like this... (shitty pic, I know)...

Do it man. Some guys like the totally blacked-out tails but I just did 2 light coats on mine and it turned out exactly how I wanted. It's kinda a ruby red when it's sunny out and when it's cloudy it looks kinda dark. It's that good balance of tinted and stock.

Mine are light enough that they don't really bother me about it. But they're nuts about the window tint so maybe they don't notice

The only stuff I have for sale (for now) is mostly stock stuff. I have a aftermarket valve cover and a AVIC-D3 in-dash that I'm thinking about selling though.
