Tinted lights installed on the 5.0

chrisheltra · 05-07-2012, 12:53 PM

Still have LED bulbs coming to replace all of the stock bulbs that I have to install.

I also got some of these emblems Im going to put on.

And I also bought a black plasti dip kit from dipyourcar.com to do my wheels in black.

Tails were done by Jeff and his friend in NC. He says he goes up there every few weeks so throw him a PM if your interested.

The LED's I got off of Ebay. I got (4) T-10's for the corner lights, (4) T-5's for the reverse lights and (2) T-3's for the license plate. I replaced my dome lights with LED's last week because the two stock bulbs were blown out.

Car looks really good. I think once you do the wheels it will really set it off...

Looks amazing. What about the reflectors on the bumper?

Yeah. They'll have to wait. I have a differential cooler I have to install first. This pig is good for about 23 minutes on the road course with the traction control disabled before it overheats the differential (yes, it tells you when it's hot). For some reason GM only offers the coolers as an option on export CTS-Vs but I've got my hands on one.
