Ummmm...I'm thinking law enforcement would have a problem with any red lights on a car that wasn't theirs..Don't do it.

When I was ordering my Stang, I originally was thinking silver, but my salesman suggested the gray, and I listened to him. I'm glad I did. If you're going to go with the blacked out look, for me, anyway, subtle works and looks better.

But it's all in what you prefer man.

Zip...I thought you had pewter..never would have though of grey. they look great BTW.

Did your dad race it at the track?? The only reason I ask...lol, There was a racetrack in Carlsbad that closed a couple of years ago. My brother used to race his nitrous 99 Vette there..he even got to talk to Jay Leno about maybe a fund raiser to try and save the track...But, there is a track closer to Annaheim I think that he then started to go to and would stop at Portillos Beef on his way home <a Chicago favorite>

If he races they may actually know each other.: ) THAT would be very funny!

Sorry we are sooooo off topic.

zip i'd like to see those tinted headlights actually on a black or alloy car to see how dark they really are. i just don't see them selling a light that is really dark enough to get that blacked out look that tinting them gets me. i have the stick on tint for all my lights now and it's dark, but i hate the fitment.
