i actually did this for a while on my 87, i wanted the lights to "blend" in, got pulled over once, i braked to show im the bulbs were red, and he let me go..good thing he didnt think of the reflector thing... :D

As an active member of the Honda community (gasp!), I find this hilarious! Mostly because it's so true! I hate fart cans and huge wings, they make me sick.

I know it's not a Chevy, but I have a fun little project Accord on the side (2900lbs). I'm building a 250HP 2.2L 4 banger for it. Should be a fun little car, even if it has no torque (wooo 160 lb-ft!). Besides, I'll have my 87' R10 for torque (6.0L swap, here I come).

I put some custom clear lights on mine, which light up red. I added a third brake light license frame. I was told that was the only way I could run those lights...legally. I also added in some custom reverse lights and some license plate lit up bolts. I know some people don't like this setup, but I love it:

According to a police officer I know, ANY red reflector in the rear (doesn't matter where just has to be visible by the person behind you), lights have to light up red, a working set of reverse lights, and having license plate lights will keep you legal....atleast in Houston. I also checked with a local inspection shop to verify what I was planning on buying before I actually bought anything.

Not really a fan of the clear lenses. IDK why, looks too ricy for me. Maybe with some customization.

Hey....... I dont have it anymore, sold it to build a C10, but my 91 Talon made 427 AWHP. Ran 10.60's and trapped 130's. Not bad for a 2 ltr. ;)

I'd be lucky to run in the high 11's in my c10 with the same power.

Forgot to add the big turbo and 30+ pounds of boost ;)
