I love it - looks so much nicer, I think. If I had the chance I'd do the mod in a second.

Go pick up some VHT Niteshades - its basically a spray on taillight cover. Then just put it on thick so its almost black. Then I just painted the Talon as close to a color of my car as I could get. I think it looks sweet. If you want more info just ask and I'll tell ya emoji

One company makes them, in theory. I believe it is asylums.com, but they don't really like to ship things out, and when they do i hear the product sucks. Only other thing to do to keep the stock rear is get either importfan.com or spoilers.com (erebuni) bumper add one, they look nice, but i prefer to do a lil sumthin else.

I'm painting the amber parts of the tails clear red as soon as it gets a little warmer out. Already have the paint.

I gotta respray also farmdogg...i put on clearcoat, and i think thats what is coming off. I personally like the all red look. Ive got a black talon. I should have some pictures soon. I am too lazy and forgetful to go out and get AA batteries for my digital cam.
