tomorrow on my day off i'm planning on re stripping the red lines on the splitters...sorta delete them...i don't wanna pull the current red ones off permanently until i can see what it will look like by laying over a black pin strip on the red..... i don't mind the red pin stripe on the rim but with the lines also on the splitters to me its too much.... i will post pictures tomorrow

Nice! I personally like the White too much to cover it up, but the gloss black looks real nice!
Socal will destroy clear coat on the roof in a couple years. So it's a dual purpose upgrade in my eyes.

I also love the white, I was originally going to have the car wrapped but decided against it because it would be a shame to not enjoy Championship White at least for a few months to a year.

Would a couple layers of ceramic pro or opti pro help with that? I do not have that on any of my vehicles just yet but am planning to add it.

I figured it out on my own, turn the wheels all to one side, then there are 3 Phillips screws to remove from inside the fender, (can't miss them) pull the fender liner as much as possible, get your hands in there, disconnect the wiring, get the reflector out, change bulb (amber one), put new reflector in, reconnect wiring, put screws back on. Takes 10 minutes, the only issue is that the wiring is very short
