It's a big day tomorrow. I will b e dropping the ST on SVT springs and tinting all the windows with 50% full metal tint. :D

My question is, should I black out the front, side markers? Should I tint the tails? Figures, I may as well have the guy tinting do those too... :?


Just looking for opinions, I guess.


Later this week I will be installing new eibach bushings and my cossie intake. It's coming right along! :D

As with anything your mileage may vary but I personally would leave all markers and lights alone. Even with an all-black car I don't mind the OEM lights just as they are.

i think you can get nite shade stuff in color? it may not be nite shade brand but it'll do the same thing. or you could mess around in photoshop or paint and do a design on your tails with just plain old paint (like stenciling and leaving a portion red). it's not like stock lights cost all that much on ebay. as for side markers. to get a clean look you can just strait up paint them. or look on ebay at all thh different side markers (they are all the same 00-07)
A friend asked me if I wanted a frozen banana, I said "No, but I want a regular banana later, so Yeah."

Thanks for the advice, I think I will leave them alone. I want to keep my focus tasteful, while still modifying it here and there. Thanks again for the opinions...
