best not do this yourself if your not sure. its easy if you know how, like anything. you just need two bulb holders wit two cable legs out of them and wire them in parallel with the existing tailight bulbs in your rear lights, there will already be a hole on your right hand side light for the bulb holder(take out your fog lamp bulb holder), but in your left rear light you'll need to cut a hole in the plastic to fit the lamp holder in, make any sense????

You'll need to remove headlights, then the bulbs and bulb holders... Stick them in the oven untill the glue melts then carefully remove the front casing..

The take the inner casing off, sand the chrome off, primer and paint it black...

Once dry refit the inner casing and reseal.... And voilla :D

There is a thread on this somewhere on the forum... It covers everything I might have missed including oven temperatures and times. :nice:

Best of luck :nice: :D

not many people like them, but everyone to their own =] if i was getting it lowered i would deffinitly get smaller rims but atm with getting the child in nd out in his car seat, im not aloud to lower it (wifes decision) so the big alloys sorta counter it.

Just ordered a Janspeed cat-back system with 4" jap cut back box with a baffle so hopefully not too loud!!

How would i remove the sticker on the back?

remove the rubber on your rear quarters. In the long uses rust come faster when you keep them because water stay there and there is humidity creation.

After completely rebuilting mine with new quarters and everything i shooted them into the garbage.

if you feel round your lip on the back arch there is like a rubber bit tht goes round the arch and it traps water in it and eats away at your arch.happen to mine as wen i bot it, pulled it off and bits of metal came with it.

i didnt no tht u had to look out for arches as i was anoob at the time.not saying im not a noob.
 
also man get a spolier tilt on the go, will look the buisness.

there is a diy forum in here tht show you how to do it and its only a 5 min job (literally) and it makes a huge difference in the look.
