      headlights look great. I'm not a fan of the performance by badge, but it's your car not mine.

      You might consider doing a single coat of tint spray on your front turn signals so they don't stick out so much.

      Yeah the SS badges were just something I thought looked cool and was a good conversation started. I was thinking about spray tinting the turn signals or taking them out all together.

      I removed them right before I took these to see if I could move that square silver GM badge over the holes, but wouldn't fit =/

      But i'll figure something out
