I was debating on doing that, but I'm not sure. I polished mine up some to see how it would look and I like it so far. Not that it isn't subject to change.

I changed the rear lens to a smoke black and taped around it so bottom of Reverse C stripe flows better:





With Smoke lens and tape:

Man that white/black car looks good. Are you going to tint the windows? I think that would look killer.

Speaking of window tint. If I could go less than 35% here in IL legally, I probably would have gotten the white/black Boss and tinted the windows 20% or so because I agree that it would look killer.

I think what he is saying is he added tape to fill in the body color around the lens, smoked lenses enclosed by the stripe.

Glad I could help. What you did was exactly how I envisioned it in my head when I told you about them months ago.
