Yeah Stef, it was nice to see you and the LS again at the meet. Great choice of wheels for the luxury flagship, not to mention the color of the car too

GRAND, his LS is 2-tone.

And oh yeah Stef, you can thank me for shooting the 1st 2 pics of your ride!

Stef,

Looking awesome! Love the rear wheel fittment especially.

I'm going to go out and search to see if you posted about it, but it looks like you painted or tinted the rear lights (middle orange part on the outer edge), right? Which way do you do it - looks great in these pics!

Also replaced the orange bulb in the turn signal next to headlight? Was it just a bulb or was there a glass sleve or other stuff in there also?

Thanks dave, as for the tailights its red window tint over the whole tailight and i didn't need to change the rear bulbs and it flashes red. The corner lenses have a cover over the orange bulb that was a b*tch to remove but well worth the efforts. MrLexo gave me step by step instructions on removing it.

Thanks doug for pic 1 and 2, thanks jeff for pic 3.

So I guess you can change the colors out on the tail lights? I just wonder how hard it would be to make the tails clear all the way across. I popped the trunk and looked at where the lights on the lid were. Is there even a way to remove those without pulling the interior off the trunk? I saw a couple bolts when I opened the hatch in the back.

That's what I read but I just found out that some of the GS guys bake their tails and remove the yellow.

What Stef meant when he said red film over the taililght is over the orange portion, not the entire light itself.

Glad you guys like the car, Stefan is a big supporter and helps out ALOT with shows, and customer relations, etc etc. Its about time the car was shown! You guys have to see this big bruiser going down the road with that nice rear dish and lowering, just look so mean! For the record even with a nearly 2" lowering this car still rides about 6 times better than a GS with Tein HA (LOL)
