Arrow completed: couple of mods w/ pics

Got this diffuser installed, and the cool little door lights that I stole from
overzealous1, he had them on his car before I did
pretty happy with the look of the diffuser, except I can't see the AMG emblems on the tips as they don't really protrude anymore
but it still looks good back there......

Must give respect to CW Performance in Apex NC for doing the install....
I also had the side mirror treatment done too, but the pictures will be better at dark......
thanx for fookin' lookin'

nicely done sir.... your shop can probably pull the pipes out a little--- there should be some "wiggle" room.

Love the lights

Everything looks awesome.
Can you please share what you did to the mirrors and costs of the light mods (both mirrors under door).
Now you the lighted star to finish it off.

the light job for the mirrors was around 800: they have to come off, get opened up and wired internally.....time consuming and tedious.....
but worth it

Looks great love all the mods of course the door lighting.

+ 1 on the tips, I had to do the same thing and just adds when you have the tips out even just an inch or so past the diffuser/body.

I didn't know the light is that common. At least it is new to me.

Same here, I wouldn't know how to get it on the car.

Is there any of those lights with AMG logos?

thanx for the comments.....that's a good question about the AMG logo, that would be sweet......
yeah, I wouldn't have known how to install them either LOL, not my forte.....
but they're obviously wired into the door lights........
they add such a nice touch.........for cheap......
will be better in fall when it gets dark sooner haha
