Bought a new car!

[shawnc16]

So who knows where I can get the smoked lenses for the side markers and running lights? Or should I just go get some nightshades by VHT and do it myself?

Thats not going to make your car any faster Justin

The guys on ls1tech said those suck. Just nightshade them.. cheaper and probably look better

Hopefully yur getting the car tuned while you paint yur little side markers. Its gonna look pretty cute in my rear view mirror

I wanted to get something like that for my Formula, couldn't find them on ebay last night.

Were you able to get your wheels sorted out Justin? or did you just touch them up?

I'd have a painter friend spray black and clear on those turn signals it look 10000X better than nightshades.

Well I was going to nightshade them and then clear. Shawn I guess I am just going to have to be slower than you for now....

I can put some 8yr smoked vinyl over them, same stuff I use for head/tail lights. It will still be glossy, unlike nightshades most of the time, and is just the right darkness. Side markers are only $20/pair, and head/tail lights are $75/pair.

plus, its removeable in case you ever needed to

Does anybody know if there is supposed to be a rubber gasket or such in this area??

Have any pictures? Is that for the complete set of front and rear turn signals?

I agree with Jeff. I had mine painted. They look 100000x's better!!

What were they painted with? and can you still see through them as far as the blinkers go during the day and such.

was your car ever tuned Justin? If not I'd recommend getting it done asap that car with its current mods should run 11s on a sticky tire and keep up with those turd gens a bit better than it sounds like it did

???

I left them damn turd gens in the dust. But of course shawns car was running rich as f***.

No I haven't gotten it tuned yet, I know it needs it but i'm contemplating another mod that should really help put down some power. We will see how the next few weeks go.

What kind of paint should I go with for the side markers and such? I can do all that kinda stuff myself, I have had a descent amount of paint experience.

sorry misunderstanding on my part I though he claimed smoking you on the way to or from the M&G. I would just use some basic black paint mixed with clearcoat. I don't know the proper ratio or anything but I've seen both done and you can tell a major difference.
