Not bad but I like the red reflector. Still not bad though.

I like the taillights.
I don't like the painted rear reflector though

Well the closer you get up to it, I really effed up the rear reflector. It was looking good until I put clear coat on and it messed up so I need to redo it now =/
As for the tails I just followed the reflector part inside the lens and painted/clear coated it.
Thanks for the input though guys, good or bad. As for the pre-98 trunk it looks good I just don't have the money and I kinda like the rear reflector painted. Just my opinion, everyone has different tastes.

You can get pulled over and ticketed for what you did. You covered up the rear red reflectors that are required on the back sides of all cars.

I actually like the painted reflector and tails. I agree with Scotster regarding the sail panels (though I have no clue what "daylight opening" means).
That's just how automotive designers refer to glass on the car. I guess I just picked that one up at school. Actually the industry norm for window graphics is "DLO" for day light opening. Dashboards are IP's, for Instrument panels, etc. Everyone loves to have abbreviations.

I have had quite a few cop cars behind me and around me everyday, I'm more worried about my tints then I am a cop pulling me over for my tails...which I did get pulled over a few weeks ago and the cop didn't say anything...not like its obstructing the taillights enough to not see them well.
And yes its not the exact Silver Frost but matches well enough for me

I need to stop posting before 6am evidently.
