cant wait for a cop to get you on it. Guy did a red overlay on his LX in texas and a cop wrote him. Only a matter of time till you get smacked or ticketed.

looks good, but i highly suggest you make your reverse lights back to white.

Its not that serious. Your hardly in reverse for a cop to even notice let alone pull you over for it. I was driving around like this and got NO TICKETS in queens what so ever and this was my daily driver 3-4 years ago.


no reverse lights and no light shines through the tails. THe brake and turn signals were the thin strip you see on the bumper.

You might have problems in the city or upstate but not in queens/BK

thats sick! as for the single fog light on a bracket. i was going to do something simular. so what i was going to do is mount it on a motorized bracket , so when you put in reverse the light comes down form under the rear bumper. i could draw you a pic or even help w/ working model!
