I'm trying to keep it looking stock. I like what you've done but I'm trying to give it that "Stock" / "Si" glow. Plus it's alittle to bright for my eyes

Wrinkle black since apparently they don't sell wrinkle red in canada and the only cans I found were on Ebay for 20 bucks a can...

Couldn't finish my climate control because it was getting to dark, but I'll try to do when my extra bulbs come in.

Agreed there is a hot spot but not as bad as the picture leads to believe haha and yes it's still red not pink. The bulbs are actually made red not painted so the colour won't fade over time thank god.
