Thats Correct socks, I am in the process on putting on a shark spoiler.

And the lenses I got from korea, I think its one of the venders on this site dont know if they are any more or not....hell socks put them on his car, he just put the lens over his stockers...

I am thinking about doing my headlights and clear corners with the VHT so post up pics in the process so we can see how good it will look.

^^ You take them apart and paint the bezel. I'll put up a DIY later I'm going to do this to a new set of headlamps.

I wasn't able to find any there. You should order it from e-bay. I checked all local auto parts stores. O'Rileys, autozone, napa, advanced, none of them had it. I found out later, that O'Rileys is the only store that carries VHT products and they don't usually carry it, but they can order it.

The RD2 I'm getting is coming with the 3-light chrome tails. I don't like the chrome-euro look, but I think with a light tint ('smoked' if you will) it'd actually look pretty good.

Quick question:

What brand of clear coat do you suggest?

dupli color clear would be fine.. i would recommend spending the 50$ shipped for the covers/replacements though.. it will look much better no matter how much time you spend on the nightshades. even so, 2 cans of nightshades=20$ or so 1-2 cans of clearcoat = 5-10$.. and then hours of work, compared to like 15-20$ more and less than an hour to do replacements, and 5 minutes to use as covers.
