I had a shop here do the body work and paint job.
The pedals came off of ebay from a guy who never installed them. I bought them for under $100 and installed them myself. Your close enough if you buy them, come up to BR and I'll install them for you.

The lights are Euro style with LEDs installed.

I have installed a HID 6500k kit in the headlights,
Yellow bulbs in the fog lights
PIAA pencil beam lights in the center grill
and yellow city lights in the head lights.


The city lights are the same as parking lights in the US Europeans countries use "city lights" when they are in a well lit town so that other cars can see them.

The HID kit is a great mod I highly recommend it.

Your car looks great!
How did you do your tail lights and headlights? I still have amber, but don't know if I like clear either. The smoke looks so sleek on the black car.

Nice car, I really like the headlights.
And the fog lights in front of the third radiator looks great.
How did you do that?

The taillights are painted black with an paint that the light can shine through and then covered with clearcoat.

The headlights are tinted with the light portion trimed out.

Thanks for the compliments.
