Just chiming in. I vote for an anthracite finish on them ralliarts.

And DeMario, I'm guessing you've taken the rear bumper off a few times. If so, have you noticed markings on the backside as to where holes for the reverse sensors would go?

Thinking of installing some OEM type sensors and don't want to screw that back bumper up.

I don't have any, or even the plugs for where they would be, no marking behind it either. The only US models that had them were the first few months off the truck that included them by mistake in all the velosters in the first batch.
Either way, it's straight forward, a lot of space to mess around. I would personally mount them on either side of the black plastic part so you don't have any Camera "pimples" on the paint

That sucks. Was hoping that since the Tech package requires holes to be drilled at least there where markings in the backside like on other cars.

I was pondering just using 2 of the 4 sensors and "hiding" them in that glossy black diffuser. But actually found a "white" kit that would blend in with the rear.

So there I was, not power sliding in a parking lot, that would be dumb. So I hit this curb pretty hard with my winter wheels at a 30 degree angle. Needless to say it bent the tie rod end. So I put it up on the lift and removed it, heated it up and shaped it back and aligned everything back to normal. Everything is back to normal. Ill be ordering a new one, luckily it's only 20$.
So that was fun haha.

Lucky!!! Nothing like a quick (and cheap) fix. I'd hate to see you trash up that car after all the work you've put into it.

Hey thanks, yeah I was sweating but luckily I took out the manual and checked it all out and it's all good again.
Today I got my lights wrapped. I think they look amazing, just as I wanted.

[SkyriderAR]

Nice. I can't do that because I need my back up lights so my camera can see at night.

[gt800]

The all red looks pretty cool.

yea I wonder how that would look on orange

[DeMarioii]

yea I wonder how that would look on orange

if you're talking about the color when its blinking it's red. It's tail light vinyl made for the lights so it's think enough to make the orange all red.
As for the back up lights, i'm installing a triangle clear light like the BRZ, my RX8, or the 370 for examples.

[gt800]

No he means how the red lights would look on his orange car.

[DeMarioii]

oh hur.

[toshko321]

I absolutely love the all-red taillights. Would you mind telling me what you did? I wanna do it to my VT taillights

Sure, Acquire some red tail light vinyl. One foot by two feet. I taped paper over the one light and traced the clear part. Cut that part out. Lay it on the vinyl, and cut it out. I used a towel, line it up and with the towel press it on and make sure there's no bubbles. Than you're all done.
