Chrome accents look perfect on that color the way you did it.... can't even tell that they are there unless you look really hard! And I was just meaning that the bumper reflectors were so much brighter than the tail lights. I assume that you're trying to match them Haha yeah, you'd have to know that they weren't meant to be there to even notice them. You're exactly right, I'm wanting to the bumper reflectors to match the same sort of light output as the tail lights, so hopefully the red tint brings it down to the same sort of brightness

Or maybe, just a lighter smoke film, not the blackout one you used before

Or maybe, just a lighter smoke film, not the blackout one you used before The film I used last time was 20% opacity so if it doesn't work out with the red I might try like a 50% opacity film. Should still be pretty see through but without the annoying glare. New photos:

New mods! I discovered that EZ Lip have recently introduced a silver version into their 'Colors' range, so I decided to buy one off TradeMe and give it a shot. My front bumper has seen a few lips over the last 18-months that I've had the car, all of which have been torn off or been damaged beyond repair due to the entrance of my garage and the height of the front-end, so I'm not planning on the EZ Lip sticking around for the long run, but for now it looks good. Upon the first drive into the garage it tore where the lip meets the 3M VHB double-sided tape (no fault of the lip itself) but it's not overly noticeable and seems to spring back for the most part every time it happens. The 'silver' is actually more of a very light grey, which in directly sunlight is quite a lot lighter than the actual color of the car, but if it lasts the distance I may look at trying to stain it slightly or maybe even plasti-dipping it to be slightly darker. Who knows, once it gets dirty from road grime etc it may naturally become darker, lol. The other new addition was the carbon fiber looking sideskirt extensions. Some of you may remember that I had one of these on the front bumper before I lowered it even further, which got torn off by the driveway straight away. I had two brand new spare ones sitting in the wardrobe however so thought I'd put them to good use. The photos don't really do them justice, but you get the idea. That's it for the weekend. Back to driving the car and clenching my butt cheeks every time I enter a driveway And some random photos taken before the new additions:

Front lip thing isn't too shabby! Looking great as always Cheers man. Ideally I'd like to have a solid front lip on there but that's never going to happen, haha. TRD fuel cap cover = +12kW
