I'm really getting the modding bug, too. I've been able to fight it off only by thinking, "I have bills to pay!"

i actually used black vinyl i got off ebay in a roll. u just do a lot of test fitting and cut it out, then u spray the whole area down with soap water and squeegee the water out until it sticks with no bubbles. not easy though i recommend u paint it lol evo mods looks mad tight on white balts.

and yea i love those taillights, no resistor what would i need one for lol
