i say you have me create the RWC Whiteout mod for you....it would nicely compliment your build project. Its a mod I created then later perfected. Our paint standards and attention to detail on this mod cannot be beat.....in person it looks OEM like it rolled off the factory floor that way.

That RWC white out black out mod is SICK! if I had a white car I'd go that route hands down either that or all red. I def. feel you on the whole smoked tail lights thing it's to easy. Everyone does that.

Some people liked smoked or tinted tails, some people don't, it's really a personal preference as to what works for you, and the look you have for your car in your head.

Thanks for all the feedback fellas. While that whiteout mod looks good, I still prefer the untouched look. Simon's got something in the works tho that he sent me just today. We'll see how that ends up. For now I think I'm just gunna leave it untouched.

i had to invest in a couple of sets of tails in order to perfect my method of opening them, customizing and resealing them...

Leave it. Or do that mod BossCat posted on his FB page. Subtle, Clean, not overdone.
