Some Pics of Mine - a couple DIY 2
Took off the gold emblems for chrome replacements
Took off the tail lights for the DIY Clear Tails Amber Removal
M3 Style Trunk Lip and Chrome Badges
Swapped out the orange side markers for clear w/LEDs also for the parking lights next to the high beams
DIY Chrome Grill
Next on the list are:
HID 8000k next saturday
Tanabe Exhaust
Junction Produce Coilovers
and undecided on my bodykit
**** I have a roof spoiler that I'm thinking of selling... never installed painted 202. It has a lift on it like the M3 trunk lip but I've decided to go without both. I'll post in the classifieds

thanx ^_*
the rear side shots are with the tails cleared out but they are so close up that the orange bulb shows a lil... they look better straight on from the rear i'll get a couple.
i baked the tail lights for about 30 min each at 200 degrees... used the flat head and turned it side to side and put um back in for about 5 more minutes repeating the same step about 4 times... i just took my time. eventually they popped open without any cracks or damaged. The amber snaps out of 5 grooves (2 top 3 bottom)... used black sealant and waited for them to dry. took about 3 hrs from taking them off the car and drying . no rush no issues
