Like the way the project is coming, good luck with it. If possible I'd like dibs on the black front bumper, can we talk? PM sent

I'm actually really liking this so far. I'm impressed as to how close of a fit those headlights are.

On another note...Hows the fitment of the ebay tails? I've been thinking about picking up a pair to spray the lenses black on. I'm concerned they may not fit well, and that they are made of very thin, brittle plastic. What's your take?

I was actually just thinking about this project the other day, wondering what happened to it. It's comming along nicely. Can't wait for the final product.

i have the ebay tails, the fitment is fine, except the trunk lock hole is a little off, but you cant tell unless you bend down and look in the hole. i sprayed mine with red tint on the outside to look a little more OEM

I would definitely be interested in an extra set of eyelids like yours you're making if you would do such a thing? I want a way to get rid of the Lexus high beams, and this would be a logical way~ RX8 upgrade.
I'm interested-pm me~ thanks!
i would but they would be 4 an rx-8. i guess i can make some sc eyelids. but it would take some time to perfect.
