Yeah, may as well do the whole trunk lid.

And the tails are waaaayyyyyy to dark, serious cop magnet there, might want to replace those or tone them down. They dont look good so dark, IMO.

I agree.
I don't care for 20's or chrome rims either,but I'm not afraid to let people know it.
Its a free country, you can do anything you want to your car.

If you cant take the critique, dont post and ask for it.
