You get an A+ for modding and enjoying your car, but IMO, a D for the spinners.

Happy modding

its really easy, all you have to do i heat the oven up to 260 and put the tails on a baking sheet and heat them in the oven for 10 minutes. (You CANT TAKE THEM OUT EARLY OR ELSE THE SEALER WILL COOL DOWN AND YOU WONT BE ABLE TO GET IT OPEN) WHEN YOU TAKE IT OUT OF THE OVEN SEPERATE THE ACTUALY LIGHT FROM THE BLACK HOUSING USING A KNIFE AND PULL IT SECTION BY SECTION ( you have to pull it kind of hard). IT DOES TAKE A COUPLE TIMES WITH PULLING PART OF IT OFF AND PUTTING IT BACK IN THE OVEN. then just take out the red part of the bottom and the orange and remove the deflector. then just put it back together. then i went to Walmart in the automotive lighting section and i bought the ICYHOT LED bulb. **you need 4of them** they are $6.52 per bulb. they are LED's bulb number 1156. feel free to ask more questions.

i think it looks pretty nice, but thats my opinion. they are weighted a little so when im driving under 40 they like like there floating and it looks like im sliding around. lol

Good job on the tails.

Again, diversity is what makes the modding world great.

Let's be mindful of comments fellas. Or this will be locked down

As for the spinners, not my cup of tea. Maybe in 2000.....but now I think that joker needs some nice staggered 19s or 20s and a drop. But thats me

I'm not gonna say anything bad about the spinners...just that it's not my taste.
