i think the 01 taillight is good, but the 430 emblem is definitley a bad choice imho

You should put a 500 emblem on there, and really keeping em guessing j/k

Car looks great.

The 01 tails displays that you like the look of the later-model taillights, which is cool.

But the 430 badge on the 400 is simply misrepresenting what you have. That's a no-no for most of us.

To "keep 'em guessing", you debadge altogether. The 430 badge doesn't make people wonder, because they believe you have a 430, but you don't.

Otherwise, nice car. Keep it shining...

definately a nice color combo, much congrats. taillights are always a great upgrade but the badges should be gone especially when a 400 is quicker than a 430.. congrats altogether man
