You loose a little bit of brightness but I wouldnt stress too much about it. The one in silver in the original post is a stealth light up and its still bright as.

Ok guys, after playing making a few of these, I have to say that the 'stealth mode' (non clear letters) can only really be possible if your after white lighting, doing this with red lighting doesnt bring the best results.

Will have pics tonight of some finished white garnishes...

Ok heres a few pics of white garnishes pretty much finished with red lighting take note of how the letters look when the light is off. These photos do not do them justice!

Sorry about the huge image sizes!

PS Baconer and Titan these are yours!

Anything stealth is impossible with red lights, they arnt as strong as the white. I might be able to do the black ones with white lights in the stealth...

I think the red letters would look nice on a black car. would match your tail lights when turned off. Your call though.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Update 2: Today I'm f**king pissed. Some of you probably saw my thread that I opened shortly after joining this forum, "urgently need expert/experienced opinion", in which I discussed the possibility of a porous RB26 engine block which I also found hard to believe. Currently both turbos are out since the shitty braided line that was installed by whoever fitted the GT28 turbos leaked oil onto the exhaust. Today while working on the cam covers to put new gaskets and half moons in, I cleaned the side of the engine block with brake cleaner. Some time later I saw that it was still glistening with oil or coolant so I dried that off. But it was wet again shortly after. Verdict: I'm royally screwed. What you can see here (hopefully, despite shit resolution), circled in red, is a crack above the turbo oil feed. Extent is a few cm long and basically goes from #3 cylinder wall to #4 cylinder wall. It slowly lets coolant through, even without any pressure behind it. I am absolutely dumbfounded as to how this crack even formed, especially since it isn't along the cylinder as it usually is but rather a horizontal crack. Probably a few cm in length. Not sure on how to deal with this issue right now. Most likely, the only true fix is a new engine block, and even a relatively well done temporary fix requires at least a full engine teardown. Neither of those really fit my timetable right now, the car has been in my buddy's garage long enough as it is. I'm open to suggestions, but I'll be looking into ordering a new 05U block soon so I have one ready for the coming year, or whenever the current block inevitably fails fully. (Most likely once the crack reaches one of the frost plugs) I think it'd be a waste of money and time to rebuild the engine with this block. Oh and I found a rust hole on the side pocket of the trunk, which someone covered up with sealant goop, a piece of number plate and bodywork filler. Fun times. So far for every issue we fix we just find a new one that is arguably worse.

      I have not found this no. I put one back on a couple days ago with no drama. I agree they are tight, but no need to remove anything.

      Anyone found gates blue racing to be extremely tight/ almost impossible to install without moving the exhaust gear
