+1 on it being a "1" to install. hardest part is making sure the new gaskets get lined up right before tightening...

Here's what my smoked lenses look like at night. Sorry it's the only picture I have of the tail lights.
But at least you can see how I moved the "running" light to the outboard side, stock that light is on the inside.

Bumperettes

Have you thought of painting the bumberettes the body colour? I have an '03 S in Arctic Silver and I just recieved my kit of plastic primer, basecoat and clearcoat from automotivetouchup.com and I plan on tackling the 2 black warts as soon as the weather cooperates up here.

I've seen an '04 with the bumperettes painted and it really adds to the look on light coloured models. On black or dark blue they don't stand out as much so painting them is of little visual gain.
