The blue is a Chrysler blue pearl, the light I had a friend mod/shave them for me and from that he took a mould and now produces a one piece lens to fit straight on. I can give you his details if you like? Ask away, glad to help and best of luck with your build. Andy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
premix 12 Report post Posted April 8, 2016 I gotta get some flush tail lights...are those dark or light smoke? These are the darkest we could go without affecting the brightness of the taillights. They are just beyond a smoke but not quite dark. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
