[QUOTE="ARdoller, post: 445673, member: 8914"] i wrecked the v6 a week ago this past Thursday. had a tire blowout, and lost control. theres a thread somewhere in this section on it. i did. i used VHT, and after a few different recommendations, i sanded em with 1500g sand paper. and decided to be cheap and get a 6" random orbit buffer for $20, and buffed em with polishing compound. i think i could have gone darker, but due to my busy schedule, i was painting them just as the sun was going down, so they looked darker than they are. but i think it'll pay off in the long run. PA is pretty leniant with tail light tint for inspection. they allow it as long as it gives off a certain brightness level when lit, so i might just sneak by the way they are now. either way though, i have a mechanic that would pass me anyway even if they dont meet regulation. i replied to your PM, dont worry about it. its cool. i didnt bother doing anything with the headlights anyway. like i said in my PM, im just outside of Philadelphia. about 25min north to be exact. about half way between Philly and Allentown. theyre just regular smoked headlights. i got them off of some ebay store. ive been pretty please with all the headlights i have purchased through ebay stores, to not constitute paying like 1.5x more for a set from say, blueovalindustries. it'll be lowered eventually. i think ive decided id like to redo the exhaust first. from what i can tell, the only thing the last guy that owned the car did to it, was swap out the stock mufflers for weld-in Dynomax mufflers. its too quiet for my taste. i have an O/R X that im getting soon, and ill be changing the catback to a 40 series flowmaster setup. after thats done, ill put some H&R supersports on it.
