Red tails look good on the car for sure. Compliments them really nice.

My buddy did mine today and I am very excited about it. They even are making a pre-cut kit that peeps can buy and do ourselves.

Here are the pics he sent me. Guess he did someone elses too.

Oh sorry. I wasnt there when he installed them since I have to park off site. But he said they are real easy to do. Peel and stick. You can prolly contact him and speak to him about it. Company is RockBlocker.com

i just did the red tailight mod yesterday and yes it does look much better "redded" out than the amber color. i have a sheet of the red vinyl that can be used to cut about 4 tails worth so if anyone one wants half of the sheet i can mail a sheet to 2 people who would like to try the mod. Simply pm me .

and where did you get that TRD grille!
I did mine last summer with red tint . And I wash my car at least once a week. And its still holding up very well. No fading ,peeling or cracking at all.
BTW Joel, it looks great- Good Job!
