here's the lights in action. the middle lights are a little dimmer then the outer ones. maybe need to switch out some bulbs. that's my neighbor stepping on the brakes for me =)

and yes i know there is a bumper lens missing. working on putting some red leds in it so they light up as well.

exhaust is on the way.

Ah, yes, found the thread That's an easy and inexpensive mod (compared to the dealer's price). Looks great! I wonder why the lights are dimmer on the inside Can you take some pics at night? I'm all about the pics huh

Did you have llumar (I think that's the brand) film for your front windows? Matches up nicely.

Edit: never mind about the tint - It's on the thread about tinting windows

Hey SHonuff... is that a extra rubbery atenna on the top left side of your ride next to your neighbor?

it seems like it... i know the Harrier has one on the rear right hand side instead of the motorized atenna we have..

Dang, you're not afraid to put the RX under the knife for some cool mods...I'd be as nervous as a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs :eek:

Except the front lights on the '01s have a reflective thing in there not just a black thing.
