2011 swoosh tailights
Hey guys, do the 2011 swoosh tailights fit on the 2006-08? I've read somewhere that it won't sit flush, is that right?

Wow $4500 to repaint the car! That's quite a bit of mods we can do with that money, did you change color?

Instead of bending the little metal pieces in the trunk I cut them off to fit them in my 06

MyIS350G,
You mean those small humps? So either you have to bend them inwards or shave them off right? Thanks.
