Yeah they're pretty awesome. All the resorts are on the back of these. ie. Park City resorts, Sundance. We have plenty of places to ride. Right now you could Ski and golf in the same day.


Thanks Velos for the compliment.

Great job. More impressed by where you live haha.

I think easier way to install is by putting a flat head at the back of the marker and pops right off.

Maybe so, but the way I did it wasn't hard. And I don't run the risk of bending the bumper. But I'm all about easy

The bulbs that came with mine were the same color as the markers I took off. I would imagine that you get any color you wanted though at Home Depot or somewhere....

WOW, at that background, and we pretty much have the same wheel, color combo, except for mine is black interior and a 63

Black out those side markers, trust me, the car gets much more "sleek"-er with it blacked out...

but anyways, congrats on your ride.
