The red thing on the rear bumper of the 2008 model

Postby seanography » Tue May 21, 2013 2:13 pm

hey guys,

wondering where you could get the red lights at the rear bumper of the 07-09 models. Do you have to buy the whole rear bumper or can you pop out that vent looking thing and replace it?

What I'm talking about lol

Not quite. Without the tinting they're different. Only slightly but ours have a larger red area and the reflector in the tail light, theirs is purely the brake light so you get that circle effect the whole width instead of being cut off :(

I understand we're all different, but why would you want reflectors? If you want to make changes, pop out the plastic and create real brake vents. :D
I got this plan. It's called 'Save Ass'. And the way it works is this - I slip outta one of these windows and I run like a bastard!
