Dosen't look too bad. I filled the gar with some rubber weather strip I sourced from clak rubber $13 (I love that shop, I used it a few times now, love going there) and sealed it with windscreen sealant $11. Got some red coloured brake light globes from my favorite Bulleseye store $10. I reckon thats the cheapest mod that has some much visual impact I have ever done...

can't wait to see it at night

Yeah I guess so, but playing sealant sucks ass... i lost my fingerprints from getting the assembly apart... suck ass I wouldn't want to do it twice... well four times... cause I still gotta do the other side...

I also had to do the bake in an oven trick, worked well...

Edited by 75coupe

I was about to do the same thing the other day after reading a post by BAM33. Had the light assembly out and all, then decided against it after seeing the sealant.

Looks great IMO.

Night shots please

if it is a white reflector pointing rewards you stand a good chance of getting booked. it is illegal to have white lights (other than reverse lights and number plate light) and white reflectors pointing rearwards.

I'd also like to see some night shots of this, and whether it's actually legal or not!

In vic it wouldnt be legal because you need to have a red reflector and im guessing that red cover was the reflector since there is no more red there.

stick some red tint over the centre circle which is the reflector. then you're legal. mind you then you'll have albino eyes on the back of your car.

when there is a car behind you with their headlights on, those reflectors shine like a b**ch,

i did this to my tail lights and at night in the light they look like rever lights lol, im pulling mine off after i finish my turbo upgrade and getting some good jap spec LED tailights

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
