I guess using the glass paint still lets the light get reflected.

Title: Re: [profile] K24low20z Post by: Paulius005 on June 21, 2009, 07:19:00 PM Is your new retro setup a whole new set or just an updated old one?

Thanks for the info, I had read somewhere someone had to cut the lip shorter and re-fuse it so I was really confused about that ;) yeah, i also saw that somewhere...if i remember right it was someone with a dark grey sedan, he said some bull about having to cut and re shape the sides of the lip..i think he prob said that so other people wouln't try it and copy his look..or maybe the shop who installed it for him maybe told him that to try and charge more money idk...the lip fits fine |
