Love your car and all the JCW stuff.

Thank you, guys.

The side marker look cool. Does it come as the whole thing or just the light itself.

Here is another one.

You know, Chris, there are a lot of programs for your computer that will take out the unsightly red spots showing through the spokes of your wheels. Try the Red-Eye function....

Take out the red. Oh no, I need brighter red may be (brake dust is so annoying).

After couple of days, I think the brake is beded in properly. I really love the feel and it performs as good as expected.

Really worth every penny.

They are just the replacement lens and bulbs. I bought them from Outmotoring.
