Tail lights turned out well dude. They remind me of the Morettes, just in a single lens.

All wired up and working but only temporarily installed. The screws holding them in place are only temporary until I affix the studs on the inside so the housings will bolt into the stock locations

Are you going to mold those fenders in, or keep the jeep'esque bolted on look?

There will be ducting. One side will be ducted to my oil cooler and the other will be ducted to my intake when I go turbo. Bear with me, ive got this worked out so where its not as extreme as it looks now
