You should have slapped him, then dragged him out behind a building for a quick hateful murder.

Quote me now while I'm feeling good about it.  I've decided a WRX will be the vehicle that replaces the Jeep.  I can't see paying Evo prices or justifying purchasing a halfassed/beat to death example for the same asinine amount of money.  For an affordable, point to point, all-weather capable performance car, a wagon fits the bill.  A swapped wagon, even better.

*L* no, joke meter is fine, i assumed there was sarcasm around that one.  I was just saying in that pic the color between the light and the body panel next to it is surprisingly far off.  you'd think they'd at least try to match the color better for the selling pic (assuming they come primed and you paint to match yourself?)

please dont paint them WRB to match the car. that would be horrible. the only time i like color matching like that is if its black (or tinted) on a black car. other than that it look cheesy. i say keep them like that, finish tinting them the rest of the way or go back to stock. :mrgreen:

Sand that black crap off and polish them up.  Step away from car.

The more I look at the back of the car I think tinted windows and a set of the sti rear skirts would be a better option. The skirts would level out the side skirt and rear bumper and the tinted windows would make the taillights fit in.

lol well this is why I asked, no color on the tails for me.

As for blacking out the entire light or the red circle, the reason I did that was to keep it legal, I already get muffler tickets I dont need rear taillight ones too.

As far as putting them back to stock I might, I want to get my back 3 windows tinted first and see if the window tint ties in the tail light tint.

Thanks for the thoughts
