To give my 98 tails the darker outline like the 94-97's (and smoked reverse lenses) I used VHT NiteShades.GSRUnit on Oct/02/07 said:Wow. That black dc2 looks just like mine!!! These look great. But is there anyway to do the black outline?

But, they're off the car right now. I was having a condensation issue on the driver's side, so I swapped on some 94-97's - if the driver's side leaks again, I'll blame the gasket. Either way, the 98's will need to be resealed before reinstallation - I'll be doing a full LED retro in the meantime.
(To undo the outline on 94-97's, you need to open the light and spray the black inner trim silver - I know there's a how-to on this, I'll look in a sec for a link to add here...)
Here's how she sits right now:

Thanks - and right back at ya! Not my thread, but yeah, I still have some 'little' plans...GSRUnit on Oct/02/07 said:You just have to have the right drop/kit/rims/accesories to go with it?
How would they go on my car??
Exactly - the tails should flow with the rest of the car, IMO. Like, if you were going to keep the GT3s, and swap in red Recaros, I'd say keep the tails as is, maybe just smoke the reverse lenses. If you wanted black, gunmetal, or bronze wheels and were keeping the amber fronts, smoke them first (a little goes a long way with the VHT!), then some 94-97's with the turn and reverse reverse section tinted, and some smoked amber sidemarkers for good measure. With gold wheels, I'd say 94-97's, just the reverse lens tinted, and some amber sidemarkers. But that's just my 2 cents.
I think the 'amber all round' theme looks great on black Tegs, smoked or not, and so do gold and bronze wheels - I just don't think it looks right with silver. And I like the sidemarkers, but not in clear or smoked clear. I'm jealous you could use them...
I have to admit, I'm glad I swapped on the 94-97's, if only because now I don't have to wonder what it looks like. (And to help recoup some fundage, I'll be modding them to be like the JDM's, but with LED, before I sell them off.)

I could see a drop with some rims, and those would set it off real nice!
