Love the CF trunk lid. I'm working on adding a spoiler to my car that is a little similar to that one, but it's going to be a couple of months away. Can't work with fiberglass in 30 degree weather and can't do it indoor because the smell would stink up the whole house!

If you could get your hands on a strafe trunk, carbon fiber and red would look sick.

Since the headlight mod is completely custom, there isn't anyone who sells just the circular clear plastic piece. So I went to Home Depot and bought a sheet maybe 2'x4' of fluorescent lighting plastic sheet and roughly cut out the shape of the turn signal, then used a dremel for the fine work and stuck it in place. Worked out nicely.
Were the bulbs orange themselves or did you have to get replacement bulbs?

If I remember correctly the bulbs were a awkward yellowish color. I changed the bulb color to match the clearance strip bulb.

I put Tokico blues with Tein S-Tech springs. It dropped it 1.8 in the front and 1.5 in the rear.
