I haven't seen a car with clear tail lights where it's looked good. I guess I just don't get it.

Indeed. But I'm not inclined to spill the beans here given the predictably warm reception.

Close. Owner is a racer, just not that one.

I agree...I only got the clears because I ordered GT silver...it looks odd on any non silver or light car...too much contrast.

No to the silver wheels and white lights on the white car!
No to the white lights on the black car!
No to the Gulfish colors, photoshopped or wrapped!

Yes to the cars itself though! I don't want to be regarded as overly negative...

I think I've considered every color including some of the approved PTS options. Kind of like picking out lingerie for a model gf. The agony!

Can't go wrong unless you pick Pink. Once you get in the car and actually drive it.. nothing else matters. --Same with the model.. Ha Ha.. I even forgot to look at my Painted PCM for an hr.
