pretty awesome, minor gap issues but pretty ******* awesome! what material did you use? and how did you mold the shape?

looks great, how much did the front lip cost you? will you be painting it or leaving it white?

I dont think there is any state that allows dark tinted tail lights. Tail light specification standards are set by the Federal governent DOT. I dont think your tail light is legal. Tinted tails=HIDs in halogen headlights
