nope its just the lighting although i wouldnt mind blacking out the chrome bits in the tail lights. seems like a lot of work though.

Question!!
Has anyone had problems rubbing in the rear section (i will try to post some pictures) of the front wheel well with 19x10 with +0 offset? its rubbing at full lock and is also rubbing the pinch welded section in the front as well.
Thanks in advanced.

denks! on an off topic note, does anyone have a spare oem front lip they'd be willing to sell me? not the air dam that comes with the appearance package, just the black lip. or does anyone know how much the dealer sells em for?
