Describe "funky"
You can't see it in those pics at all... but like I said.. it's like someone sprayed clear coat on the inside of the clear plastic. I'm thinking it could have been from baking it... *shrug* Who knows. Despite that tho.. I love em.

Okay.. forgot about a little handy dandy feture on the digi.. so I got the pics... here they are...








Also.. I took some pics of the side markers I smoked out thanks to a tip from pinoydon2003. Looks really hot against the black IMO. Better then the "look at me" white.
I also took out my PIAA front turn signal bulbs and threw the orange back in. IMO it compliments the gunmetal soooooo much nicer. The PIAAs made it look cheap. Did the same throughout the car. (Instead of the red side marker and red rear turn signal bulbs

yeah, looks like overspray....

you could re-open them and use paint thinner on the lenses, but dunno how much it might help.

I'm glad mine don't do that....

but the 99-00 gunmetal headlights definatly look a bit better than the 96-98's. I'm just glad I don't have the lines all over my headlights.

:dunno: But they were no where near anything as I sprayed... and I cleaned them before I put them back... I think it may have happend from baking.
