eh, ganadors are nice, but the plugs dont match up with the sc. ive contacted everyone who has them and everyone says the same thing and noone has bothered to figure out the wiring. its pretty disappointing since its one of the main reasons i bought them. ill mess with the harness once i get the car back and see if i can get them to work.

thanks for all the comments guys, its very much appreciated.
oh if thats the case hell yeah! lol cause i couldnt tell from the pics, but yeah not a fan of hellaflush either, but i really like just flush.

Post Nice

Car is lookin great man. Cant wait to see it all finished up with all those goodies. would love to see it at ride height the plans for the rest of the lights sounds great. fogs sounds like a pain, but will look great if pulled off.IMHO if you do sand them dont try to polish them back. get at least back up to 600 and re-clear them. car clear that is, works great. tails look awesome dude.

my vote goes along with cherplex with no spoiler. its been growing on me also, but that one you have is nice and rare. still flows well like he said.
