It can't be legal, and if someone rear ends you and says that they couldn't see your brake lights.....you are screwed.
Yeah those are WAY too dark and totally unsafe for road driving. During the daytime I question whether anyone can even see your brake lights. Aesthetically also a loss.

But it's your car so do what you want.

That's what I was wondering too. It appears the lift is bending the underside aero plates and possibly bending other things that aren't designed to take the car's weight. Lift the car correctly...

The paint is awesome. The car looks a little too "drug lord" for me with the chrome wheels and blacked out lights though.

Ok, had to look at your car again. Replace the rear tail lights with LED's and get rid of the tint. Add HID's to the front and get rid of the tint. Just my opinion. Love the color though.

Car looks great! How did you find the fit and finish with the better bodies kit? I'm looking at a similar project this fall, and I'm trying to decide between a better bodies kit, and a similar Fiberwerks kit. Fiberwerks is a little more expensive, but Better Bodies has some mixed reviews in previous threads.

As many have said the lights, come on. That is not safe and probably not legal. Those wheels are hideous also. Its your car though so what ever I say shouldn't matter to you, so don't take it personally.
