Let me just say something...

CPR: Thank you for all the time, effort and research you do into these cars. It is clear that you make very high quality accessories for our cars, and you price them extremely well.

Not a lot of people do that anymore...

You're car looks just awesome, and so will everyone else's once they install you're parts.

Keep up the great work!!!!

I'm very interested in the rear clear corner lenses -- they make a red car look fantastic! Question: what is involved in installing them? Do they come as a whole new taillight assy or just the corner?

Also, I seem to remember you had 3- and 4-piece spoilers for sale; which one is that one?

Sorry everyone...I have been busy with meetings this morning...I'll be quick, I've another one coming up in 10 minutes...

ANSWERS:
-To keep costs reasonable, the clear rear is the corner lens only (L & R). Installation is pretty simple:
1. remove tailight assembly
2. Remove existing amber lens. You can use a punch and knock it out from the back or a grinder to cut it out. Either way, the interior surface needs to have all the amber plastic removed. I used a RotoZip (like a larger Dremel) to smooth it out.
3. You are supposed to use a standard automotive bonding adhesive to hold the lens in. However, being that they come mostly in black, and wanting to ensure against color bleed thru, I simply used high strength clear silicone caulk on the underside of the lens.
4. Clamp or weight the lens while adhesive cures...then re-install assembly.

It takes about an hour per lens to do it correctly.

COLLIN: this is the 4piece 968 style wing.

TO ALL: my PM box imploded this morning ...I have several people who wish to order right now. That is okay...just send me an e-mail with what product you desire, what finish and a ship to address for the shipping quote. I'll reply ASAP.

I have just one quick question before I plan to order, are the clear turn signals "legal" to use on the street? More importantly will the pass inspection in most states?

Doug: NC's inspections are fairly close to others with the exception of a sniffer test. The only place I have heard of that does not like white turn signal lenses is AU and EU. In the states, lots of cars come with clear turn in the back and that = OK. The only reg's for the rear of the vehicle are:

Lisc. plate lights funtional
DOT stamps in the lenses
Rear reflector visible from the side
No blue lights to the rear.

I think that's it. We do state inspections at the shop I run so I am sure I am pretty close here.

Keith,
It is or was going tomorrow. I'll hold it until I hear from you.

All I need is the paint code number....or if it is a OEM paint the year and color will do.

Yes.

Spidey did a good job explaining it...thanks for picking up my slack

You will need to check your state for laws or ordinances concerning the smoked lenses.
