    Tonight I got a little bit done. Got my LEDs installed in the plate lights. Got my smoked all read tails in, and trunk LED in. I only have my iPotato so the photos aren't great. I'll get some good photos tomorrow.

    Before


    New lights. Appears I'll have no issues with light shining through, it seems just as bright as they were without any transparent black.

        Seriously. I'll get it fixed in due time. The suspension needs a refresh first.

        Here is the tails in the daylight.



        Here compared to the early model tails.

          That tint on the tails is really subtle and classy. It looks just perfect. Unlike that fucking Volvo lip.

              I was thinking now that this car is basically Volvo I can put one of those prancing moose stickers on it.

              Don't know if tail lights, or lip.

                Both!

                tails are good...lip, not so much.

                    Moved the wheels over. I decided that since I'm selling the zinno, and I just put tires on these wheels I may as well keep the wheels with good tread. It seriously needs more low, it's crazy how much better the zinno looks with just the little h&r sport drop it has.

                          is there a reason you're not swapping over the suspension goodies from the zinno before it sells?

                            Look into getting Vogtlands for the new one. They're cheap and I've been really happy with them both on the street and at the track.

                                I'm getting a 4runner, and really don't have room, or can afford to insure and maintain three cars.

                                It has some H&R sport springs that I got for about $100. It's really not worth the time, or effort to swap those over.

                                I'm going to go with some ground control coilovers with Koini shocks.

                                I was indeed planning on removing the stickers from the car.
