L.E.D tails look too 'red' on MRM, almost want to go back to my OEM's with red-outs, but i might keep them. Fair warning is from what i noticed one side of the corner L.E.D's goes out all the time, happened to many people here with them.

I may just put on some smoked vinyl on my OEM tails... not really dark, just lightly smoked...

There seem to be a few floating around ebay for like $15-$20...

Yess! that's exactly what i want to do now as well, let me know if you find 'lightly' tinted, because all the other overlays are super dark.

giantsfan, how often do you wash those wheels? brake dusts on flat gunmetal makes the wheel look all black right?

I just wipe them down with a wet microfiber cloth (then again with a dry one to get rid of all the water) about every week or so to keep anything from building up....

If i let the brake dust build up, yes, it looks matte black..

@ OP Nice roof spoiler man.

Had a question, whats the difference with the roof spoiler the OP gave a link for
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...#ht_3051wt_921


and this spoiler here
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Paint...#ht_5875wt_989


Price difference?
