They are actually Silver stripes... Looking through my photobucket pics, i dont have a good solid picture of just the lines...

They are like LH SLR lines down the base of the windows and onto the front guard. Then like XR8 Falcon bonnet buldge stripes...

There is a slightly better pic

She has done the black edges, and a black stripe in the middle.

are they white strips (bit of glare from the sun)? Definitely looks cool when you match striping with the body lines!

I think I got some spare UC back lights too Rodomo, might have a fiddle with them - got nothing but time atm. Gotta love uni holidays

I had a go at this today but it was cloudy then fine and the camera couldn't work out whether to flash or not so I got no consistant results.

What I did find was that it has to be a darker colour behind the amber. The best result was with a charcoal colour but I think it was too dark.

Maybe a mid grey?

They aren't bad at all... They still look UCish, but not as big and bug eyed...

There is a blue UC hatch in the ACT/QBYN with Ford FE (1986/87?) LTD tail lights and it fits neatly between the bumper bar and the hatch. Looks Factory. Just my 2c worth.

Ive been attacking mine today and tried using, black, silver, grey and red on the inside, I have just finished painting them red as this gave the best result.. I'll post pics once fitted, I also tried using silver and black around the grooves that surround the reflector but it looked terrible.

Cheers.
