    I meant the front turn signals and tail lights, I know the headlights are new and obviously not derped just by looking at em. Why didn't you use night shade?

    I plan on doing it for the front signals but the tail lights turned out well so there's no point in changing them, it looks dark during the day but at night you can't even tell a difference

    You do realize those things you derped in the front bumper are the signals... right?

    I mean I don't always post when I get compliments but jeep guy was asking about my RTT. And then some woman at a bus stop yelled out "damn nice Toyota" at the stop light (my windows were down).

    And if you did get rear ended who do you think would catch the blame? Probably the guy with black tail lights
