Where did you get that idea

From some guy called phil. Hes quite the but has done some quality work on his FTO.

I have been pondering on some ideas that I have got from your FTO (hope you dont mind - not gonna just copy your FTO, but ya know, need some inspiration )

Bought it from a young Asian lad for $6500! Car was located in Beverly

Okay, so here's a small list I've compiled that she agrees with

How much will I be looking at forking out for this one??

- Lower (legally)
- Tint taillights (is this even legal?)
- Post-facelift front end


...Anybody know anybody with a post-facelift front end in black and how much I'm forking out?

- Lower (legally) I found these the other day, http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/330723924637 ... 1436.l2649
- Tint taillights (is this even legal?) Some guys use tint paint and some use a stick-on tint.

I would have to say the vinyl tints are better than the spray on because if you do get pulled over you can peel them off then and there.

Can I make them myself?

This is the tint me and a few other guys on here have used.

...That looks dope. I'm doing my car too if I do this.

Marshy1223 has done his but left the reversing lights uncovered. For a brighter reverse light I would assume?

With a turning circle like this, who needs to reverse??

Yep, me too.
Nope not legal, but I've had mine for a year now and yet to be picked up *touch wood*


It's a bit safer than nightshade as you can just rip them off again!
