It comes with time trial and error. I just black glosses my calipers. Looks clean. Red stands out too much and looks like brembo wannabe's IMO

My car doesn't have these lights under the mirror. Maybe it's a Canada thing or because my car is an 06 but my puddle lights are on the bottom of my doors.

Ya those are courtesy door lighting i think the lighting that he has started to come out on the 07's. the led is a small housing built into the underside of the mirror that illuminated when you open the door locks. I love the way it looks on his car. Maybe oneday for me

Can you clarify how you take off the mirrors. My passenger side is not working and I need to replace it but can't figure out how to do it.
