Looks a lot better with the red out tail lights. You should get a shark fin antenna, I don't like the shorty rod antenna, it's like an rc. Other than that, looks great.

Damn that looks great.

Mind sharing what the taillight painting cost? If you got a deal, no need to post that, but I'd like to know the normal price if you have that info.

Normal price is about $300

He said if we set up a group buy we can do it for about $250

It's not a cheap thing to do unfortunately (the time consumption it takes for him to do it is not worth his time unless there was multiple units that he can do at once)

If there was a core program where he could ship out painted one's and have us send back our originals i would be in on it.

Thanks for the info! Too rich for my blood, but I definitely understand his position. Vinyl was much cheaper, but that paint looks perfect.
