New pics of my Monte

OK, so not much has changed, but I did a few more things to customize mine a little more. I've got factory fogs installed with Nokya hyper yellow bulbs, a custom 3rd brake light cover and "eyelids" on the headlights. Check my website for more pics, and let me know what you think!

I hate to say it, but I was going for that Lexus look with the HID's and the fogs.

Nice. Great photos. I have thought about taking all my badging off as well. sure makes the tail end look sleek when you debadge and have no key hole as the '05's do. Can you tell us more about the 3rd brake light? Is it a replacement lens that is clear? Does is it have a light coat of silver paint over it? It looks nice, but I can't tell exactly what is going on there.

All I did to make the cover was get some perforated vinyl (from the same guy that made the eyelids). I peeled a section of it back from the backing and shot it with some silver Duplicolor. Once it dried, I made sure none of the holes were filled with paint (the reason for peeling it off the backing). I removed the lens from the trunk, cut the vinyl down to a size that was just larger than then lens, but smaller than the gasket around it and applied it to the lens. When not on the brakes, you see how great it looks. When the brakes are applied the light shines through just fine.
