changed out a bad license plate bulb. Luckily I caught it while my car was warming up so I didn't get pulled over lol. It was an led one that had a light break or burn out and it started melting

WTF was that trash can made out of? Lead?

Vacuum bled the clutch in the LNF
Tried to adjust the BPS in it but the previous installed murked it up and I need parts.
Boosted 25psi to work.

Daaayum.... those aftermarket tail lights stick out pretty far eh?

I just bought a pair of un-molested stock tail lights off kijiji for 15$!!

I want to bake them apart and do some red led or halo style lights and some other stuff...

Anyone know if the tail lights can be baked apart like the headlights?

I found this thread, but it went nowhere...https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/prob...lights-241993/

Yeah i could get the duraflex one but then idk about the black plaint would look weird with the rest of the paint. Atleast carbon fiber would look better i think lol

I painted my SS N/A wheels, but I only use them during the winter with snow tires:

(They used to be gloss black)

Used duplicolor high performance silver and clearcoat. The prep work is what took the longest. Aside from a few spots that could use filler, they look factory.
