My car is currently sitting here

I'm waiting for a new bumper which is about 3 weeks away from Japan :( It's been completely resprayed already but thinking at the possibility of more work?

 

thought about -

 

Getting calipers sprayed gold (jspec) - though i have the paint etc to do this myself.

 

Getting the rear lights tinted e.g. c-west style (wondered whether this can be light enough so reflectors still show through to be legal and would it suit the blue colour?)

 

Maybe something under the car e.g. underseal?

 

Not sure KR can do any or all of this but would like more ideas? :search:

 

Thanks Jon

tinted lights were sold recently on here - so think if you're careful you will have no problems for MOT's etc.

 

I've been toying with the idea of doing it to mine - currently have c-west light covers but 1 is broken and can't afford £120 to replace it :(

 

Do the calipers yourself and save the money - hell if you have money to burn you can pay for my respray as well ;)

saw your posts about cracked covers :( pricey at £120 a set. Just trying to keep mine legal for now ;)

Would like to c-west covers photos taken with the flash to see if the reflectors show up?

 

Not sure what else could be done/worth doing? Had rear wiper and ariel removed.
