Finally installed the LSE tail lights and I thought i would share some pictures. The car hasn't been washed in over a week and it rained yesterday, so it's not in it's cleanest condition.

Here is a pic of my car with the STR wheels photoshoped on it. I am hoping to have them on the car this summer. We'll see.

Those tails look great.

Do you plan on painting the surround?

What about dropping the car a bit?

Those wheels will look good on that color for sure!
 
looks so nice, i love lse tails on the lighter color ls's im startin to miss my lse tails lol
 
Nice wheels. I like they almost look as if they were stock at first glance.

Andrizzle, thanks man. I am planning on getting the surround painted, not sure when. I was going to do it myself, but i will probably just have a shop do it.
As far as the lowering goes, i am going to leave it at the stock ride height. I used to have the coil conversion kit in my Mark and it sat about 2" lower than it did with the air bags. Let me tell ya, I just got sick of pulling in and out of places at minus 5 miles an hour and scraping suspension parts.
 
Thanks fellas.

Dj- Yeah they are 18s. I saw them for sale on a website, just can't remember the name of it on top of my head, but i do have it written down. Once I find it, I"ll get back to you.

Lito- I can't wait to replace the stockers with the Vulcans. I think they are the perfect wheels for our cars.

Tony- I am very happy with them. The rear on the car stands out a lot now. I honestly think the LSE tails look just as good on your car.
Maybe I will go out for another photoshoot, post pics on here and we'll see if it's enough motivation to get you to switch yours back.;)

D Noro- They are my favorite. They flow really well with the car and are classy/sporty at the same time.

De marko & Alax- Thanks.
 
ay 05 LS8 those look good :D ...im a big fan of the LSE taillights on the 03+'s.

Hey man, how have you been?

Yes, you are exactly right about the baseball fields. You must know the area well.

I would definitely be for a meet at Bald Hill. I used to go there every week, but been time poor lately. As matter of fact, we have a get together coming up on the 9th....I think it's on the 9th. I will send you all of the details through email. You should come out.

And, I do appreciate the compliment man.
 
Looking good! Did you use some laminx film?

Now paint that surround and get some springs. You won't regret it
 
Looks nice brother-

Thank you. They look so much better in real life. For some reason, once i upload the pictures into photobucket, it blurrs out the pictures. I might have to mess around with the options, to see what's wrong with it.

Thanks man. The tails are not covered with Lamin X film. They are the real LSE tails....i bought them new.

Painting the surround is going to be my next mod. It looks sooo much better color matched. BTW, yours came out great. Nice job.
I am still iffy about the springs. We'll see.
 
Go eibachs, they dont lower it that much, just enough to give it a good stance. If you dont like them, you could easily sell them
 
Edgar the car looks very nice! Love the tails and the color.

A painted surround and lowering springs would defenately make it look 10xs better but if you get Jag wheels it will be perfect!

Apres aper!
 
Oh yea, use flickr for the pictures, it won't blur your photos. Nice pix though.
 
Alax- I guess you're right, i could just sell them if i didn't like them. If the Eibachs lower the car only an inch, i would get them. I know they advertise an inch drop, but it's a little more than that from what i have seen on here.


Artur- Mersi @nger jan.
I just opened a flickr account, uploaded couple of photos just to test it out and they all came out great. I will post a couple on here in a few minutes.
The surround is an easy fix, i will do that first. Hopefully, the wheels will be right after.
