best looing is to red out the sides, and color match the center to your car

I back lit the "TALON" with some neons (didn't come out as well as I hoped, but I can fix it easy. Just need some motivation :P ). Also, during the day, I think the center piece looks pretty tight with the black paint removed from the letters. Other than that, I'm still OE amber/red. :7

Gonna redo the neon thing for better light coverage in the near future, and polish up the lettering. (They're still kinda rough sanded)

Like mentioned above, to red the sides out, and color match the center piece to the rest of the car. I just completed this today. No pics yet...Soon.

Black out the orange....change the color of TALON to match your car, and move the turn signals to the bottom, beside the brake lights.

I just talked to my friend at his bodyshop and we're gonna paint mine center....but don't spray paint it......even sanding lots wont do.......the paint won't stick very well. He has this special primer for plastics. I'm assuming that you can buy it somewhere?? bodyshop? anyways....i just seen a good pic of a black car like mine with the sentre blacked out and it looked pretty good so I'm gonna go ahead on the weekend!! i'll post pics if anyone wants to see!!

Peace:thumbsup

>somebody has some camber problems

yeah i know i do :P...that is one of many things on my to do list...and about color matching the center piece....remember this is my opinion.....I think it looks like ass...There is a nice talon in the area with it done and it looks horrible...I have seen it in pics online, and i still believe it looks horrible...No offense to anyone who has it done.
As far as blacking mine out, its a tinting spray that i got from Summit racing...I can't find it anymore though so i am not sure if they still sell it...Cops don't bug me either, everything is still reflective and the lights still show up the same color, so they can't really bug me about it.
