i have heard a lot of great things about Betalink. I finally got her on there solid! but i also got glue residue on the spoiler as it started drying faster than i could get it mounted haha so NOW i gotta repaint the spoiler / trunk again probably

Yo Sevenevez I think your first set of LED taillights you did ended up out here in LA. Or some one out here is jocking your style. I saw them for sale on craigslist. Looks exactly like yours.

haha holy ***** man. those are them. i faded the paint on those a pretty specific way. maybe k2motors fixed the resistor and are selling them on craigslist or someone bought them from k2 who knows. Good Eye my friend. I think its pretty cool they have migrated around the map.

Frustrating as hewl man. Now its stuck on there like a rock, but the glue started to set so fast i had to hurry up and line it up and it has like just a hair more of a gap on the left than the right. might take it off again and do it all over for like the 3rd time. Which will include painting the whole trunk again. Who knows, i need to paint my drivers mirror anyways so i ordered some more Black Onyx. Got a few more projects for her i suppose

I'm waiting to get some spoilers back from the paint shop and I'm looking for some good stuff to hold them down pretty good and to slow down thieves from taking them right off Let me know if the spoiler comes off easy.
